FIELD NOTES

WINTER BLUE / CAMAS PRAIRIE

Darkness, cold, isolation, and grief turned into a field of attention.

Winter Blue I gathers one set of frames for each day spent on the Camas Prairie.

Seventeen trips between January and April under sub-zero conditions carried the work across the full season.

Winter Blue was born from a winter search for Lisa's missing family dog. For 11 days she and her community searched—sleeping in her car, searching in whiteouts—meeting the full force of winter as fear, temperature, and overwhelming discomfort. The dog was found unharmed.
