Jed Fielding - Look at Me: Photographs From Mexico City July 1, 2009

In these stark and powerful portraits of blind children in Mexico City, Jed Fielding, a Chicago based photographer, finds an eerie aesthetic that would have us question our very notions of beauty, as well as our concepts of vision and the role of spectator. These poignant photographs are the result of a close and intimate collaboration with children at schools for the blind whose instructions were often as simple as "look at me." The exhibition is accompanied by a companion book.
