Foreign the series, which began in 2008, Halloran photographed herself while skateboarding in the dark, save a light attached to her, creating self-portraits where her movement abstracts her presence. The relatively long exposure time of each photograph, sometimes up to 7 minutes, would allow the light that was attached to the artist to illuminate the background of the image.
At the moment the series includes Los Angeles, /Miami, and /Detroit. A forthcoming series will be set in the Bay Area.
Is a series of paintings made in 2009-2010 that were inspired by the Cuevas de los Cristales in Naica, Mexico.
The large scale paintings, such as (left) explore liminality and relationships. The Naica mine, where the crystals reach lengths of 60 feet, are inaccessible to most people as the conditions are extreme. Temperatures reach up to 120F and protective gear is required.
To create these large scale paintings of the crystals Halloran worked from a variety of photographs in the media as well as from scientific drawings.
In some of the smaller paintings there are figures perched on the crystals to demonstrate their scale.
