About the Book
This collection of photographs will come in a collectors book as well as a catalog of the book. It shows the final collection of photographs from JordanRiver Michaels 2019 - 2021.
I find at times that I can’t control the way my mind works but photography allows me to create an alter ego outside myself. My body becomes the subject of a narrative that allows for the expression of emotions that I can control. I look to religion as a way of interpreting my fascination with and curiosity about death. I present my body as an object of purity and sacrifice using my interest in fashion and painting as a lens through which lure the viewer into my personal space. I hope the images create a tension between wanting to look and feeling that one shouldn’t. I am the art director, model, photographer, light designer and costumer. I join the viewer as a voyeur of myself.
