Art is often associated with mental health. Usually in some dramatic and brutal way. Think of the phrase: suffering for one’s art. Part 2 of my talk with Kristofer Schofield focuses on his relationship with the prairies; how his photographs become self portraits of his mental health; how seeking help through art, therapy, or medication is not a cure all. Rather, they are ways to hold off the extremes while we search for balance.
Most importantly we find out that Kris was a lead singer of a hardcore band called Shiloh. And I added a clip at the end. And it's sweat-inducing. So Shiloh or Landscape time-lapse... you decide.
