TOO TIRED FOR SUNSHINE
In Too Tired for Sunshine, Tara Wray confronts depression by documenting the beauty, darkness, and absurdity of everyday life. Drawn from domesticity and rural wanderings, the photos explore loneliness and isolation, as seen through a lens of absurdist dark humor. Too Tired for Sunshine puts a fine point on channeling pain into creative expression. We are both witnessing the process and experiencing the result. Wray takes us on a visual and emotional journey with disarming humor that lets us lean in to the sadness.
