BEAUTY: Photography for Halloween--Darla Teagarden

For Halloween, here is the witchly, ghostly, spooky photographic work of Darla Teagarden.

"Darla makes her portraits (primarily self portraits, unless otherwise stated) by crafting small theatrical vignettes out of wood, paper, chalk , plaster and projection, creating in camera effects. These serve abstractly as her as means for communication, protection, ritual and a sense of place. Her images are either faceless or in character. She uses symbolic gestures as the narrative communicates common experience and unity."
