"In the 1950s, as a student of Minor White’s, Jerry Uelsmann was given an assignment to photograph doorways of “ominous portent.” His lifelong fascination with creating images that are dark and foreboding began at that time.
For Approaching the Shadow, Uelsmann has selected 57 photographs spanning some 40 years, each a personal metaphor for “those dark and evocative images that emerge from just beyond the threshold of conscious understanding.” Most of these images have never been published; en masse, they offer new insight to this artist’s visual quest.

 Art New England - February/March 2005 - Spotlight Reviews New Hampshire
Uelsmann in fact exhibits an homage to Man Ray, and elsewhere includes the Man Ray-like motif of a pair of disembodied, voluptuous lips in the middle of a woodland road.
Like Uelsmann, Taylor uses repeated motifs, including moth or butterfly wings, paper crowns, separated body parts, and figures of humans with the heads of rabbits, dogs, or cats (though the latter are not among her most successful works).
Taylor’s combinations of imagery can be as bizarre as Uelsmann’s, but the use of the tintype portraits gives her work less visual variety and imaginative range than Uelsmann’s photographs.
