Totally Exposed: I Fall and I Rise, photographs by Sarah R. Bloom

Sarah R. Bloom is an artist, portrait & event photographer, and writer whose work has appeared in The Art of the State show at the Pennsylvania State Museum in both 2008 and 2010, and most recently had a piece in the Photography 30 exhibition at The Perkins Center for the Arts. She has been a member of the Da Vinci Art Alliance for 2 years, showing in several of their group shows.

Bloom began creating her self-portraits in 2007, and has expanded the scope of her techniques and locales. Her greatest challenge, she says, has been to break away from conventional or flattering poses while creating a raw and compelling image. Bloom presents her viewers with an unflinching look at the most fragile and fleeting, both in ourselves and in our creations.
