| Laina Briedis photography |
[Aug. 26th, 2010|03:32 am] |



My name is Laina Briedis. I’ve lived on Long Island all my life, and for as long as I can remember I have been captivated with the concept, practice, and art of photography. I suppose you could say that I very often try to live vicariously though my pictures, each still frame is a dream I had once, an attempt to capture or at least encompass some aspect of infinity. I create photographs because I’ve come to the conclusion that all the best kinds of happiness depend upon it as far as my existence goes. I want to remember everything the way it was meant to be seen, and catalog not only an experience or adventure but the feelings associated with it and the dream-like state our memories record in. I strive to make each one of my photographs not only provoke a memory within myself, but an emotion — something that can bound across the endless invisible clotheslines of infinity, creating a connection with someone else who’s able to reach out and grab it. I’m pretty sure the universe exists because of things like that, and I crave so desperately to create such moments: instants of existential clarity. As for preference and style, I find myself very moved by and inspired to create photographs that are deeply colorful or demonstrate a boldness of color in some way. My favourite medium is 35mm color film, typically at ISO 400-200. I tend to focus the majority of my photographs on spontaneous moments of living subjects, especially those I have meaningful relationships with.
