Episode 027: Rachael Tarravechia

@Tarravechia     Tarravechia.com
Rachael Tarravechia’s work investigates the threshold of private versus public and aims to capture fleeting, intimate moments.  Moments where the room was just previously occupied, and now there are no people, no phones, no cameras, yet the aura of humanity still lingers. Tarravechia lives and works in Brooklyn, New York, and is represented by Ceysson & Bénétière.
