Fourth Runner Up by Liz Kuball A rerun yes, but a rerun worth another look. Hey, Hot Shot! Summer 07 Honorable Mention Liz Kuball is coming back for round two. And not only did she get her entry in early, she has also been keeping us abreast of her goings on, and my, my, my has Liz been busy. Perhaps you recall our previous post on Liz's work? Let me refresh your memory. A Southern California-based photographer, in her ongoing series In Store Liz scrutinizes consumer society, summing up our material nostalgia by turning her camera on the spaces we send our most special of junk to fester and die. I'll be the first to say, I find her images a bit scolding, as I try not to recall that at the age of 22 I already have storage units in three cities across the country. Need to be reminded of the precious goods you stored away just to loose the key? Go check out the work here. Now, allow me to take this moment to toot our horn... According to Liz's jam-packed newsletter, not only has she been cranking out new work, but it seems her appearance on this dear blog followed by a HHS! HM got her quite a bit of attention. And I quote her, "being featured on the blog brought lots of visitors to my site, including Ian Hunter and Star Rosencrans, owners of the Shotgun Space gallery in Los Angeles, who asked me to participate in a two-person show this fall with Johanna Reed, featuring work from my In Store series." And lucky you in L.A. - the show opens tonight and runs through the end of the month!
