 Candace
Biggerstaff
WIPI Photo LA 2013 Curator:
Candace Biggerstaff was born and raised in the San Fernando Valley
of Southern California, as the youngest of five children. Upon
receiving a used Aries rangefinder camera on her thirteenth birthday,
her passion for photography was born.
When Candace turned 20 she decided to join Circus Vargas with
her soon to be husband, and traveled the country with the circus
from city to city for almost 2 years. She has always been intrigued
and fascinated by the circus and all of its intricacies, which
she has portrayed in various ways through her photography.
“My world is seen as a series of photographs. Growing up,
my favorite magazine was LIFE. My favorite book was, The Family
of Man, having no idea that the incredible Edward Steichen was
the photographer. For me the images were an escape from reality,
with reality.”

Callie
Biggerstaff, a native to Los Angeles, CA, has been a freelance
photographer for over 5 years She has studied photography at Art
Center College of Design, Pasadena as well as The Julia Dean Photo
Workshops. Callie began shooting professionally after discovering
a great passion for imagery during her work as a photo editor
in print advertising and graphic design. Callie's earlier images
had focused on the documentary of Americana, and its shifts and
changes. Her images offer a blunt reality while still allowing
the intensity, mystery, and beauty that can be seen in each exploration
and journey, capturing a moment and evoking emotion. Her recent
focus has exploded in the way of live music and the culture surrounding
the underground resurgence of Downtown Los Angeles. She is aiming
to capture the raw pleasure and passions that Angelenos are rediscovering
in these ongoing times of economic and political struggle.

Barbara
Pickles
A
Mother’s World, 11 x 14" bamboo
Barbara Pickles is a fine art and commercial photographer
in Southern California. After studying art at Wellesley College
she became a photographer, art director and commercial producer
in Los Angeles. Completing her MFA studies in photography in 2010
at Brooks Institute in Santa Barbara, Pickles continues to develop
her photographic career. In this body of work as an American woman,
wife, and mother of three boys, Pickles worked to convey her personal
reality within the family. This process constantly brought her back
to the dining room table. Yet, in all the images the artist was
absent. Ultimately she stepped in front of the camera, and through
pose and gesture found a language to communicate her emotional experiences
as an American woman, wife, and mother. This is excerpt from a body
of 13 images.

Maureen Haldeman
Silver
Lining, 2013, 11 x 14" bamboo
Maureen Haldeman has for over 20 years, photographed a wide range
of subject matter spanning all realms of nature as well as the urban
landscape: whether dramatic shadows cast by a late day sun or patterns
produced by simple objects, representational or abstract, her photographs
are acutely conscious of light, shadow and the beauty of nature:
whether a moody seascape or a still life, her images impart a painterly
quality. “My photographs are interpretations of how I see
the world rather than a mirror image of it; unconcerned with depiction
of detail, I focus on the total effect of texture, color and light
to capture the essence of a scene, often creating a slightly off-balance
view of reality. ”Maureen’s photographs are exhibited
at various Los Angeles galleries and many are in private collections.
She has taught photography at the college level and previously owned
MJH Photography in Malibu, Ca., specializing in portraiture. She
is currently working on a series of images of Old Havana taken on
a recent trip to Cuba.

Diane Silverman
Best
Friends Forever 2011, 11 x 14" bamboo
As a visual artist, psychoanalyst and art psychotherapist, Diane
Silverman has always been focused on the internal world of emotions,
the unconscious mind, dreams and fantasies. The primary focus of
both her artistic and professional career has been the exploration
of this internal terrain, and in the facilitation and both the visual
and verbal expression of these less accessible and hidden strata
of the mind. Her principal photographic projects have included portraiture,
both of herself and others. Often this has taken the form of either
actual images of her subjects, or metaphorical and symbolic portraits
through the creation of still life assemblages that she photographs.
She is more interested in interpretation than in producing faithful
representations of the concrete world around her. Diane’s
photographic experience spans more than 30 years. She has been the
recipient of several awards and publications, and has exhibited
her work in group shows in Los Angeles, New York and San Diego.
She still uses film exclusively, and will probably continue to do
so.

Diane Cockerill
Chance
of Showers 2012, 11 x 14" bamboo
Diane Cockerill is a third-generation Angeleno whose love of Los
Angeles impacts her photography, from the macro of the downtown
skyline to the micro of street curbs. Constantly seeking new images
and locations, she takes the usual and offers it up with unusual
perspective and sensibility. Diane studied Fine Art at UCLA
and has shown work at several local galleries, including a juried
competition last December at the Orange County Center for Contemporary
Art. Her photograph, "City Hall", was chosen to be part
of The Los Angeles Collection exhibition at Duncan Miller Gallery
in 2011 as well as the Pink Art Fair in Seoul, Korea. Touring America
Magazine and Southern California Women's Caucus for Art's "Women
Around Town" have highlighted her work. Diane's street art
persona was the topic of a recent article on Huffington Post.

Jane Olin
Site/Sight
Unseen No. 1, 2012, 11 x 14" bamboo
Jane Olin’s passion for Photography began over 20 years ago.

darkroom and while making images, are central to her work. Working
in Series allows for a deeper interpretation of her subject while
simultaneously allowing a deeper examination of her own psyche.

cameras. Her creative expression in her darkroom varies from toned
silver images, cyanotype and process photography. She’s exhibited
throughout the United States and Europe and has won numerous awards.
Her Studio is located in Carmel Valley, California.
