“Carousels – In the Round”, by Pep Ventosas.

‘My work is about finding new visual experiences in photography. With the series ‘Carousels – In the Round’, I walked in a circle around each of the carousels, shooting repeatedly along the path. T

hen the photographs were overlaid and refined to discover what becomes of the orbit. One may think they are looking at a single carousel in each image, but it is actually as many as several dozen separate shots of the same carousel, blended together — the carousel and its environment, in the round.’

To be born a Southern woman is to be made aware of your distinctiveness. And with it, the rules. The expectations. These vary some, but all follow the same basic template, which is, fundamentally, no matter what the circumstance, Southern women make the effort. Which is why even the girls in the trailer parks paint their nails. And why overstressed working moms still bake three dozen homemade cookies for the school fund-raiser. This is less about vanity than self-respect, a crucial distinction often lost on non-Southerners. When a Southern woman fusses over her appearance, it does not reflect insecurity, narcissism, or some arrested form of antifeminism that holds back the sisterhood. Southern women are postfeminism. Southern women do not capitalize on their looks to snag men, though that often results. The reason we Southern women take care of ourselves is because, simply, Southern women are caretakers.
