One of a Kind

From Anna Norton Photography in an exclusive selection from her Each Moment Series, this framed beauty is one of six offered by Cercie + Co. A fine art piece that will be a cherished addition to any space. 11 ¾ x 13 ¾ in.

Anna collects natural objects that speak to her because of shape, form, color, characteristic or character. Her technique is to scan these objects on a flatbed scanner to capture detail that is often unseen by the naked eye. She then places them in vintage frames and (unless the back is in good shape and of good character) papers the backs with handmade Lokta paper (eco friendly).

Artist’s Statement:

Nothing will tell you where you are. Each moment is a place you've never been. —Mark Strand

Nothing will tell you where you are, and yet we persist endlessly in the human effort to understand and connect. What is this place, who am I, and what is my relationship here? What can I offer, and what can be learned? What are the particular tastes, scents and sights of a lived experience of a given place, and how do they shift over time? When routine overtakes the senses, how can connection be stirred?

Each moment is a place you’ve never been. I often turn to the natural world where what is offered up to the senses each moment is ever new, where transience is unmistakable. Shifting light, flowing water and gentle wind remind the body that a constant state of change moves outside of us as within. We work against the temporal, in effort to remember and be remembered, through the stories we tell, the art we make. And so I find myself at the intersection of my own desires—to remember and forget, to hold and let go—upon the surface of the land that marks the juncture of life passed with that which is constantly being renewed, a field of decay punctuated near and far by new growth. It is here that I begin again.
