Two Trains and a Monorail by Rachel Hope Allan
Thought from the artist:I am drawn to photographing animals. Whether that be in captivity, in the museum, or on my bed. I do this as an act of love and in an attempt to discover why I have such an affinity with them. I expose the suffering they endure, their majesty, their companionship, their grandeur. I celebrate and memorialize them; embalming them in code and silver. Each time I look through glass at animals, I uncover a little more about myself.
I use my camera as an apparatus to both distance and protect. Bending light and capturing the unseen, my images are an ode to all the creatures: the ones tattooed on my body, those that share my home, haunt my dreams and inhabit this earth
