Photographer Sarah Small lives and works in New York city. Her photography, with it’s enchanting people, animals, and candy colors, documents the human drama created when disparate visual elements and emotions collide. From her artist statement, “I examine human interactions with one another and with animals without reference to environmental cues or social markers like occupation, class and revealing context.” This examination has led to a body of work that is rich in such things as color and composition, but more importantly, examines the complexity of human emotions. In her spare time, Sarah maintains a daily diary of polaroid self portraits and sings in a Balkan A Cappella quartet, Black Sea Hotel.

Hi
Just a quick note to say that all of these shots have been resized poorly in a way that alters their original proportions so they all look fuzzy and stretched out.

The first shot, for example, is sized to 480 by 380 but if you compare it to the larger shot on Sarah’s site (http://www.sarahsmall.com/photos/hires/pc2886fI.jpg) you’ll see that if it were sized proportionally, it should be 480 by 320.

Hey Davin,
Thanks so much for pointing this out. Not sure what went wrong, but it’s fixed now.
