Working with a menagerie of insects and animals she raises in her New
York City loft, Catherine Chalmers make images that ask the viewer to
examine lives that are ordinarily overlooked. Her most notable
photographic series, Food Chain, sketches with vivid immediacy
the links between predator and prey, eater and eaten, from plant to
insect to amphibian. Chalmers places predator and prey before a stark
white background and then lets nature take its course.
