Alison Heath

Alison Heath is a photographer and visual artist living in San Francisco. Much of her work has been of urban and natural landscapes. She has photographed the imaginary landscapes of museum dioramas and the interior of a house full of mementos left behind by a dying uncle. Recently she has been forgoing the camera altogether, making use of the reflected light of a flat bed scanner on compositions of natural materials. Much of her work serves as memento mori, a reminder of the fragility of present time and the preciousness of things that we would otherwise take for granted.
