Tealia was born in Illinois, attended Columbia College Chicago where she received her BA in Fine Art Photography. She then got her MFA from University of Iowa with a major in Fine Art Photography and a minor in printmaking. The work that she focuses on is based on exploring the physical and emotional way in which people present themselves and their environment where they know that they are on display.
The focus of this project, called The Live Creature and Ethereal Things, is the nature of longing, vulnerability, self-consciousness, and image as a construction. Her wish for this work is to create a greater understanding of the complexity of relationships between who we wish to be and the person that we are.
I chose this work because i feel that her focus of the work is similar to what i want to work with this semester, the idea of who i really am and the place that i fit.
My Dream is to realize who i truly am, 2007
