Close Up #66, Hold You, Tamara Zibners
Inkjet Print, 44”x 44”, 2020
Tamara Zibners looks at the fleeting period of time during early motherhood when she and her child are physically connected. She transforms photographs into digital drawings, recognizable as domestic snapshots, but cartooned and degraded. The resulting body of work is at once disorienting and familiar, grotesque but tender.
