Cowgirl Dreaming is a subjective journey through the landscapes of New Mexico and beauty in darkness.
The American cowgirl is an archetypal figure symbolizing a sense of home, freedom and courage; the core pillars in American national identity. In darkness, however, the girls may seem distant and radiated danger and sensuality at the same time. They are encapsulated by a mythical darkness, a place where dreams end and dreams begin. My photographs question American national identity and how cultural symbols and myths are not firm constructions, but rather something that can suddenly appear foreign and unhomely.
