BEST OF SHOW AWARD! Book Power Redux In the USA, family is a flexible and fluid, constantly changing as our society grows and develops an understanding for the people who live here. This fluidity is essential and what I wished to explore. Mix and Match Families is an artists' book that address these ideas. The imagery for the book began while I photographed families and individuals in Washington, D.C. I removed the original background from the images and placed them on solid colored backgrounds. The solid colored backgrounds indicate the original family unit in the artists' book. The book is designed so that the viewer can flip through the pages altering the family (much like a children's flip book) to include same sex families, heterosexual families, and interracial families.
