Deedra

Oberle
,
grew
up
in
Quincy
,
Illinois
and
took
her
first
photograph
with the
help
of her
father
using
his
Ciro-flex
camera
which
still
sits
on her
bookshelf
. By
junior
high
school

years

photography
taking

Artist's Statement
About
her
work
,
Dee
writes
, '
I
consider
myself
a
street
photographer
and
since
I
have
made
my
living
as a
writer
,
my
camera
and
photography
were
first
used
as a
way
to
document
things
I
wanted
to
write
about
.
When
I
wander
with
my
camera
,
whether
on the
streets
of
New
Orleans
or in
my
backyard
,
my
senses
are
keener
and
I
see
through
new
eyes
.
I
would
never
be
happy
working
in a
studio
controlling
light
and
shadow
.
I
have
no
desire
to
manipulate
nature
or
human
nature
.
Photography
,
I
believe
,
can
help
us
see
the
obvious
. In the
last
few
years
I
have been
more
interested
in the
beauty
of the
patterns
and
textures
that
we
often
are
too
busy
to
see
and
I
am
intrigued
by
peeling
paint
and
rusty
metal
and
buildings
that are
forgotten
but not
gone
.
I
am
working
on a
series
I
call
Wabi
Sabi
and
another
featuring
the
color
Blue
. In the
future
I
hope
to
experiment
more
with
photo
transfers
and
mixed
media.
