PICTURES

In 2007 Becky Hendrick publicly --- in a multi-part art work of course --- retired from the practice of Art capital A. Since then she has continued to explore many creative arenas and photography is one of them: where she used to MAKE pictures she now TAKES pictures. Using a simple automatic camera set on the most basic setting looking and locating compositions in her day-to-day world has become a major part of her art lower case a. She considers herself to be an amateur but her pictures show that walking and looking --- undisturbed and solitary --- reveal that art-worthy imagery is everywhere. Unintentionally her subjects tend to fall into a few categories: passages (doorways windows and stairs) primary colors and simple asymmetrical compositions where ugly subject matter display a formal beauty. An online search of her name will lead you to websites and videos demonstrating her wide-ranging Art and art writing performance and other creative endeavors.
