Robert ParkeHarrison

ForestBed, 1998, silver gelatin print, 37" x 42", Collection of Monroe and Beverly Sonneborn
Robert ParkeHarrison combines the visual and performing arts in his photographs. Conjuring poetic images of a bleak and blasted world, the artist appears in each work as a comic everyman figure—a shaman, a scientist, an alchemist, a fool—who ceaselessly labors to probe his bizarre post-technological environment.
