Jessica Kolkmeier reviews Lydia Goldblatt

Goldblatt really caught my eye with her "Still Here" series, a documentation of her father's descent into old age, her mother's care, and the home that they inhabit. She is able to create photos that have a still, quiet mood about them, almost as if the house stands still for the camera. Each photo is very emotional though, and you're really able to put yourself into the setting. The colors she is able to capture are beautiful, and even the minimal photos she includes without her mother or father speak volumes.
