Earhart Chappel Inc. IPA

when i see wounderfully powerful photo’s such as jo’s . i sit back and think…did the photos we did evocate a responce, question/questioning and did they clearly convey a message
all listed below are on our home page www.redbubble.com/people/earhertchappel
“grey fetal pain”
this piece grey was to mean not clear as black and white
fetal was for baby /fetus
pain was for the loss
so what i was trying to say with this photo, is that a miscarriage / an abortion of the fetus was extremely painful.and that sometimes there are no clear cut answers why with a miscarriage, and how some women made a decision not to carry out their pregnancy, and that in most that i have spoken with the “why” factor in adulthood has them question the what if, and the pain a woman feels from the loss of her baby.

“lilith with immortality and knowledge”
it is said that lilith in part snake like form tempted eve, to take from the tree an apple.
lilith had a choice the tree of knowledge and the tree of life.”knowledge” would give eve and adam the knowledge here are a few examples of knowledge good, evil, shame,
lilith could have temped eve with the fruit from the tree of life, but in doing so, they would become immortal.

“the sin eve passed on”
from then till know we think of eve, as her actions created original sin. hence the passing of the cross to eve’s shoulders. as now since then have all been born with “original sin”

cheers to you health
i edited this photo to not make the model perfect looking, as i was portraying a sin(a yellowing effect as when health issues arise from excess causes our body’s to change) of excess “gluttony” . as every time before this i have seen it done with food. i wanted to portray it different, as one needs food to live, but the intake of alcohol and drugs and cigarettes, are all harmful, yet some do in excess. so i wanted to take something that we did not need to survive on to live, to use in the photo for “gluttony”.

“prides heavy vail”
quite simply i was trying to portray pride in this photo as a sin, showing the weight of pride with the head piece /vail.

“the price”
simply choosing fame over faith, and i could elaborate for days on this one!

“clear”
hands in the cross position to portray ones choice, sin, and sacrifice, for one to place others in front of god.trying to convey the lack in faith and the overwhelming obsession with those they seek out to be more important than god/ faith.

“reach”
the position of being cornered, with no way out. with failed attempts of escape.

“to shed some light on the idea”
to simply put it, the light bulb represents ideas and as it is high and in her mouth,
and the pride sharing the ideas. but at the same time a small element in thinking hers is above all others.

these are just a few of our statement pieces. but i have to really congrats jo, as her, convey the point, of really equivocating her meaning.
