Work from Verso.
Also take a gander at her Go Ogle series of photographic averages.
“My most recent work continues to probe the tension between what conventionally constitutes a picture space and the underlying factors, textual or otherwise, that work to reinforce and define that space. These stark images allow the viewer to glimpse only the backs of photographs—-gleaned from my family’s visual history as well as from anonymous, found photographic collections. Hints of text, stamped numbers, tape and glue marks, all relics of a pre-pixel age, invite the viewer to construct their own photographic image on an imagined reverse side.” – Meggan Gould
