STATEMENT
Juror Arlette Kayafas I spent several long sessions looking at and reviewing the photographs – each encounter revealed more...whether it was a specific animal or place...I began to perceive a continuing theme of dignity. Having only experienced relationships with domesticated house pets, the journey to other places and more exotic animals was exciting. The power in the portrait of a crow or rescued sheep was intense and could not be ignored. The everyday images of pets in our home and our personal relationships were often humorous but usually revealed a connection, an emotional trust, and respect. –Arlette Kayafas for C4FAP
