Throughout her career, Sandi Haber Fifield has worked with multiple images to create narrative pieces that transcend the formal elements of photography confined to a single moment. What happens before and after the image is what interests Haber Fifield most. Working in an intuitive manner, she searches for the connective tissue between disparate images to produce a whole from smaller parts. The associations she makes result in composites of four, sometimes three images, often rendered in soft focus, which are like visual poems reconstructed from memory or dreams. These beautiful, engaging, sometimes humorous, and decidedly feminine works are gathered here in the artists third monograph with an essay by renowned photography critic Vicki Goldberg.
Sandi Haber Fifield is a contemporary fine art photographer based in Conneticut. Her work has been exhibited in notable museums including The Art Institute of Chicago, The Museum of American Art, Museum of Contemporary Photography, The Museum of Modern Art, The Oakland Museum, The St. Louis Art Museum, among others.
Sandi Haber Fifields photographs float on the colors of memory, mood, feeling, and suggestion. They combine the indistinctness of memory with the imperfections of photography to produce elusive, incomplete reconstructions of times, events, and sentiments at the far reaches of perception.
