Two bodies must learn to gently orbit one another. Too close and the crash is catastrophic. Too far and the tether between them separates and the two drift off into the void. Perhaps one of the most successful photographic collaborations of recent years also happens to be one that acts as a celebration of loving union. Husband and wife Alex Webb and Rebecca Norris Webb have, as well as producing their own distinct individual bodies of work, also collaborated on a host of projects. This has resulted in three publications: <em>Violet Isle<\/em> (2009), <em>Alex Webb and Rebecca Norris Webb on Street Photography<\/em> <em>and the Poetic Image<\/em> (2014) <em>Memory City<\/em> (also 2014) and, published recently, <em>Slant Rhymes<\/em>, the most personal collaboration so far.<\/p>\n<p>The title refers to a term denoting a rhyme formed by words with similar, but not identical, sounds. It\u2019s a perfect encapsulation of the collaboration between Alex and Rebecca. Their images are somehow distinct yet complementary. As Rebecca says, the pair has learned to embrace the gaps between their individual ways of seeing.<\/p>\n<p><em>Violet Isle<\/em>, their first collaborative book, began as two separate projects, which they had both worked on individually for some 13 years. Alex was photographing on the streets of Cuba and Rebecca was exploring the unique collections of animals she had discovered all over the island, from private menageries to pigeon societies to quirky natural history museums. For some reason \u2013 neither of them can be sure why \u2013 they hit upon the notion of combining the work and, at the suggestion of an editor, instead of creating a book of two chapters, interwove their photographs. The result was a more multi-layered portrait of the island.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Since that first collaboration a decade ago, we\u2019ve realised that it is best for our photography and relationship \u2013 to be working on both our own individual projects as well as on a joint project,\u2019 says Rebecca. \u2018Both kinds of project ask different things of us as artists and as human beings. In the end, it\u2019s about striking the right balance creatively.\u2019<\/p>\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_107188&quot;  class=\"c-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1020px\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-107188 size-full\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Havana-Cuba-2001-Alex-Webb.jpg\" alt=\"Havana, Cuba 2001 Alex Webb\" width=\"1000\" height=\"662\" srcset=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/06\/Havana-Cuba-2001-Alex-Webb.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/06\/Havana-Cuba-2001-Alex-Webb.jpg?resize=300,199 300w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/06\/Havana-Cuba-2001-Alex-Webb.jpg?resize=604,400 604w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/06\/Havana-Cuba-2001-Alex-Webb.jpg?resize=900,596 900w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/06\/Havana-Cuba-2001-Alex-Webb.jpg?resize=562,372 562w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">Havana, Cuba, 2001 by Alex Webb<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<h2>Different strokes<\/h2>\n<p>Alex\u2019s work has become famous for the layering of elements, almost to the point that the compositions threaten to spill over into visual chaos (though, importantly, never do). The photographer Dayanita Singh famously described Alex\u2019s colour &#8211; and light-saturated images as \u2018migraine photographs\u2019. Rebecca\u2019s images, on the other hand, are deeply poetic in their nature and are especially notable for their ephemeral subtlety. Rebecca began her career as a poet and it\u2019s this sensitivity that infuses her images.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018It\u2019s been a bit of a mystery to us how well our photographs seem to work together,\u2019 says Alex. \u2018In trying to analyse it, it seems that more than anything else, both of us seem to respond to a slight sense of surrealism. Both of us are intrigued by the enigmatic, the inexplicable. But it seems as if our respective forms of photographic surrealism are in different keys.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Both Alex\u2019s and Rebecca\u2019s approaches to photography of course rely on them \u2018seeing\u2019 a scene differently. This inevitably involves them approaching projects from rather distinct positions. In their own ways, they both rely on a kind of instinct. Alex\u2019s instinct places him very much in the moment of the immediate environment. Rebecca\u2019s seems much more concerned with traces, memory and history.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018It\u2019s impossible to generalise about what I\u2019m drawn to,\u2019 Alex says. \u2018I guess I sense the possibility of a photograph, I almost \u201csmell\u201d it: a shaft of light, a gathering of people, a bit of a poster, an alleyway. I hang out, I watch, and sometimes something unexpected happens that somehow transforms the mundane into something more intriguing.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Rebecca says that when a landscape calls, she follows. \u2018How I work is akin to a kind of listening \u2013 seeing as a way of listening deeply to the rhythm and the stillness of my first landscape, one that\u2019s rich with memory and poetic resonance.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Alex explains that <em>Slant Rhymes<\/em> is a visual conversation between Rebecca and himself. They paired photographs that they made or shared over the course of their long relationship, from their initial rich friendship in 1988, to their marriage in 1999, and then to their subsequent collaborations.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Sometimes the images are linked by a shared palette,\u2019 says Alex. \u2018Sometimes by formal concerns, sometimes by the same geography, and often by a mutual penchant for the surreal or surprising moment.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u2018We like to think that underneath <em>Slant Rhymes<\/em> is a kind of unfinished, elliptical love poem that spans the nearly-30 years we\u2019ve know each other,\u2019 says Rebecca. \u2018Also, like with the most surprising metaphors, some of our paired images require you to take an imaginative leap in order to fly over the sometimes deep visual divide that separates our two very different ways of seeing.\u2019<\/p>\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_107187&quot;  class=\"c-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1020px\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-107187 size-full\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Giraffes-Paris-2006-Rebecca-Norris-Webb.jpg\" alt=\"Giraffes, Paris, 2006 Rebecca Norris Webb\" width=\"1000\" height=\"669\" srcset=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/06\/Giraffes-Paris-2006-Rebecca-Norris-Webb.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/06\/Giraffes-Paris-2006-Rebecca-Norris-Webb.jpg?resize=300,201 300w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/06\/Giraffes-Paris-2006-Rebecca-Norris-Webb.jpg?resize=598,400 598w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/06\/Giraffes-Paris-2006-Rebecca-Norris-Webb.jpg?resize=900,602 900w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/06\/Giraffes-Paris-2006-Rebecca-Norris-Webb.jpg?resize=562,376 562w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/06\/Giraffes-Paris-2006-Rebecca-Norris-Webb.jpg?resize=600,400 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">Giraffes, Paris, 2006, by Rebecca Norris Webb<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<h2>From film to digital<\/h2>\n<p>What\u2019s especially interesting looking back through the work of Alex and Rebecca is seeing two photographers who have both navigated their way through the transition from film to digital. It\u2019s a process that\u2019s likely to be familiar to many readers, and is especially significant when viewing the work of two key photographers who have had to almost shift the parameters of their processes in order to accommodate it.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018My decision to start working digitally was largely prompted by the end of Kodachrome, the colour transparency film I had used since the late 1970s,\u2019 Alex explains. \u2018My initial reservations about digital were twofold: I didn\u2019t like digital\u2019s intangibility. I could touch a transparency but not a bunch of bits. This still bothers me, but now, since starting to work digitally, I always make work prints of any images that I care about, just to be able to hold them.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018My second reservation was the thinness of digital files. Prints from digital files didn\u2019t seem to have the richness and texture and soul that those from film did, a bit like the way musicians have criticised CDs for not having the soulfulness that vinyl does. I\u2019ve learned to work with my printer, usually adding a little grain to the files, to give digital prints a bit more texture and soul. They\u2019re different than those from film, but I now like what we are managing to produce.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u2018<em>Memory City<\/em>, which came out in 2014, ended up being my last book in which I solely used film. So, needless to say, it\u2019s been a difficult couple of years for me while making the transition. It\u2019s only recently that I feel I\u2019ve found my rhythm while working digitally, a creative process with its own unique struggles and unexpected benefits. Unlike working with film, I can now edit late at night in the same landscape where I\u2019m photographing, allowing me to immerse myself more deeply. Last night, for instance, while editing my photographs on the same floodplain where my dad grew up, I was serenaded by a couple of barred owls.\u2019<\/p>\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_107184&quot;  class=\"c-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1020px\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-107184 size-full\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Blackbirds-Dakota-US-2012-Rebecca-Norris-Webb.jpg\" alt=\"Blackbirds, Dakota, US, 2012 Rebecca Norris Webb\" width=\"1000\" height=\"665\" srcset=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/06\/Blackbirds-Dakota-US-2012-Rebecca-Norris-Webb.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/06\/Blackbirds-Dakota-US-2012-Rebecca-Norris-Webb.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/06\/Blackbirds-Dakota-US-2012-Rebecca-Norris-Webb.jpg?resize=602,400 602w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/06\/Blackbirds-Dakota-US-2012-Rebecca-Norris-Webb.jpg?resize=900,599 900w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/06\/Blackbirds-Dakota-US-2012-Rebecca-Norris-Webb.jpg?resize=562,374 562w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/06\/Blackbirds-Dakota-US-2012-Rebecca-Norris-Webb.jpg?resize=600,400 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">Blackbirds, Dakota, US, 2012, Rebecca Norris Webb<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<h2>Shifting landscapes<\/h2>\n<p>This all begs the question as to how the pair sees the photography world now. In their view, is it in an especially healthy place with the proliferation of smartphones and social media?<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Right now, I\u2019m very intrigued that as the possibilities of publishing a book of photographs through traditional publishing channels have diminished, photography books have proliferated,\u2019 says Alex. \u2018More and more photographers are\u00a0 figuring out ways to publish their own books, whether themselves or through small independent publishing houses. It\u2019s almost as if the intangibility of the internet and the nature of the digital image have resulted in a need for the tangible photography book.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018It\u2019s also interesting to note that with the proliferation of cell phones, it seems as if no significant event in the world these days will go un-photographed,\u2019 he continues. \u2018Someone, somehow, will have a cell phone and take a photograph, be it the American soldier photographing a hooded prisoner in Abu Ghraib, or an Iranian photographing a protest that his government does not want documented. Having said that, there are so many mundane, banal images coursing through the internet that it\u2019s easy to miss the truly special images.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u2018As two of the last analogue dinosaurs, Alex and I have only relatively recently traded our flip phones for smartphones,\u2019 says Rebecca. \u2018We\u2019ve long been interested in the relationship between text and images and how the two can illuminate one other. I was immediately intrigued with experimenting with Instagram, since it allows you to post accompanying texts along with your photographs. So Alex and I came up with the idea of <em>Slant Rhymes<\/em> \u2013 posting one of his images that visually rhymes with one of mine \u2013 as a way of creatively playing and expanding on this notion. So, in essence, Instagram became a kind of sketchbook for us. When the publisher La F\u00e1brica came to us a few months later, inviting us to do a book with them, we immediately thought of <em>Slant Rhymes<\/em>. So, in part, we have Instagram to thank for what eventually became an analogue project.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Next up, the pair is working on a collaborative project about Brooklyn, NY, where they\u2019ve lived together for nearly 20 years, called <em>The City Within<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018At the same time, we\u2019re both working on two independent projects,\u2019 says Alex. \u2018I\u2019m currently photographing in Memphis, part of a larger project about US cities. As I say this, Rebecca is photographing in Rush County, Indiana, on <em>Night Calls<\/em>, a tribute to her country-doctor father. He was a contemporary of the Colorado country doctor whom Eugene Smith photographed for <em>Life<\/em> magazine in 1948.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>While we often take the view that artists, and photographers especially, are \u2018lone gunmen\u2019, it\u2019s heartening to see the benefits of collaboration, particularly with two individuals so in tune with one another. There\u2019s something to be noted there. If you\u2019re looking to take your photography in a new direction, consider that perhaps there is someone close by who can help you do just that.
