The Catch is a psychological tale of love. Drawing from the story of Orpheus and Eurydice, the series uses photographs to depict the anxieties and intensities associated with intimacy and passion, and its proximity to hatred and death. Within the tradition of photographic realism, the images use metaphor, memory, and symbolism to translate these emotional and delusional states.
The idea that true love will drive one to do anything, even commit murder, is one that has been part of literature for centuries. There is a collective fascination with these emotional states; the intense, neurotic, obsessive, frightening yet intoxicating and addictive feeling that is universally experienced. The images attempt to translate these sensations and unconscious urges into physical manifestations using everyday objects and the natural environment.
