From Madeleine Weatherby’s review of Pia Paulina Guilmoth’s recent monograph for Musée Magazine:
Pia-Paulina Guilmoth’s Flowers Drink the River is composed of images that collectively unfold as a dreamscape. Working with a large-format analogue camera, Guilmoth traces the enchanted qualities of the natural landscape surrounding her home in rural Maine. Mud-filled forests, dew-covered grass, river water, stone ground, and wild flowers are observed with intense sensitivity, transforming everyday surroundings into spaces charged with mystery and emotional presence. The photographs often appear only partially resolved, embracing blur, haze and imperfection. Rather than fixed documents, the images feel transient and unfinished, like fleeting moments slipping from view.
