Description
Hart offers a disquieting, ambiguous and often disconsolate journey into the intimate life of her large Midwestern family. Her multi-year photographic study turns a watchful eye on their prosaic domestic rituals as well as their vertiginous experience of grief, loss and death. As she documents her brother’s terminal illness, Hart’s tense, pressurized detachment bears the psychic weight of great longing and nostalgia. These elegiac portraits convey an eerie excavation - and memorialization - of the awkwardly permanent transience of family.

Evah Hart’s work has been exhibited at the Getty Museum, Santa Monica Museum and in galleries throughout Southern CA. This is Hart’s first solo show of photographic work. Hart received her BFA with department of Art Awards from Ball State University, Muncie, Indiana. She is an instructor in photography at Art Center College of design.
