During her contemplative walks, American photographer Lynn Alleva Lilley began to observe and photograph the many small details in the woods around Sligo Creek in Maryland: the shimmering winter light, the tiny curling tendrils of a climbing plant, the dry grasses in the colder seasons, the fresh green in the spring. In her silent movement, she also met deer, birds, cicadas, snakes, turtles, and many more characters who inhabit the land around the creek. In her images, Lilley manages to arouse what is not directly perceptible to the senses. The viewer connects with the vegetation and animals, not as the “superior” human but as part of the ecosystem she portrays in ‘The Nest’.
