This piece was inspired by India Blake Johnson’s book of poetry and photography. Johnson’s work throughout his career, of which this is a late example, often highlights stillness as much as they do movement. In Captured ,its subject has an alert stillness reading its book. The stillness conveyed here asks the viewer to notice its presence, to slow down and contemplate what you are seeing. We invite you to peek over the reader’s shoulder to read the poem she has been caught reading, or perhaps join her on the bench. Does the poem she is reading speak to you? If you were to write a poem, what around you now would inspire you?

Fun fact: This piece was originally commissioned for the grand opening of the famous Giorgio building in the heart of Beverly Hills on Rodeo Drive, its creator immortalized on the tote bag.
