Sarah Wilmer


So my life has been fairly uneventful lately, which has left me without a whole lot of discussion topics. I did find this photographer named Sarah Wimer though and thought I'd highlight some of her work because it fits in well with my recent theme of slightly darker works of art for the month of October. Sarah's photographs are full of shadows and extreme angles that set off her subject, preppy teenagers as they explore overgrown forest scenes. The well groomed kids are contrasted by wild bushes and branches. Extreme angles and widely panned views highlight the frailty of humanity and the power of nature to engulf. The images would fit in well as illustrations for a book of Brothers Grimm fairly tales.
