Joana And Aurele In Bed

For the last few weeks my main focus was on contemporary art and intimate life and Nan Goldin became my main inspiration. Trying to capture amateur-like style but done by a professional was something very difficult. There is very thin line between these two sides and keeping balance was something what can prove that someone is an artist.
Goldin was born in Washington, D.C., and grew up in an upper-middle-class Jewish family in the Boston, Massachusetts suburb of Lexington. After attending the nearby Lexington High School, she enrolled at the Satya Community School in Lincoln, where a teacher introduced her to the camera in 1968; Goldin was then fifteen years old. Her first solo show, held in Boston in 1973, was based on her photographic journeys among the city's gay and transsexual communities, to which she had been introduced by her friend David Armstrong. Goldin graduated from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston/Tufts University in 1977/1978, where she had worked mostly with Cibachrome prints.
