Blood in Heaven

This body of work stems from an obsession with girlhood; a dark and sometimes unnerving attachment with remaining youthful and innocent while knowing I am no longer the girl I use to be. Blood in Heaven comes from my exploration of religion and spirituality that has continued to circle around a faith based on rituals. I use a 4x5 view camera to stage scenes that clue the viewer into the relationship between young women and the spiritual world. These photographs are documents of the divine spaces I have discovered while becoming a woman. They speak about the death of innocence and of what comes after. These photographs are a window into this space, and a witness to rituals of young women.

Kat Miller

Kat Miller is a photographer from Portland, Maine. She uses a large format view camera to construct her narratives. Her current ongoing body of work examines the inherent cosmic bond all beings share and a desire to embrace different energies surrounding us. Miller’s photographs are not only forever scarred on a sheet of film, they are stored within the energy of souls connecting together through the photographic process. The camera acts as a portal, a door into memories of magic from past and future. She paints with light and vision, finding raw and romantic beauty in the landscape. These photographs are a key in unlocking the deep connection humans are lacking. They are the memories of a forgotten sublime nature.
