"When I photograph, I look for moments when the primal reaction to being touched surfaces. Whether a creature is comforted or withdraws, the responses seem to be a conduit to the subconscious, revealing delicate or destructive thoughts." Elaine Bezold is a photographer originally from Joplin, Missouri. She attended the University of Missouri for a BFA in Photography and Fibers, and The Massachusetts College of Art and Design for her MFA in Photography. She currently lives in East Texas and teaches as a Visiting Assistant Professor at Stephen F. Austin University. www.elainebezold.com
