"I am currently exploring trees and nature in my personal work; so this poem was a natural fit."
Dawn Tekler earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from The Cleveland Institute of Art with a major in Photography and a minor in Video and Film History. You can visit her gallery at 78th Street Studios. Tekler is drawn to the idea of encasing the subject so it can be studied at a ta later date. This is a theme that is carried over from her voyeuristic approach to photography. Through the layering of wax, adding color and texture, Tekler aims to create an environment that allows the viewer to bring to it their own story and hopefully enjoyment of that journey. Also with anticipation invite the viewer back over and over again to find different elements not noticed in the original viewing.
