Jill Greenburg




Jill Greenburg's photography goes further than most other photographers in reference to the extreme use of lighting. Her photography is extreme and almost scereal. She steps beyond the realm of studio lighting and gives her objects an almost 'non human' like appearance. Her images do however trigger a responce when viewed. A lot of her images capture emotions of the human face at their most extreme. Although is seems that Jill Greenburgs images are somewhat staged she manages to capture time just as Harold Edgerton does. Similarly to Edgerton Greenburg manages to capture her object in a state of change. In doing this she is capturing a moment therefore, in a sense, capturing time.
