Bobby Abrahamson’s “Rabbit”

Date Posted: March 5, 2008 Posted By: ArtPDX

Rabbit: The photography of Bobby Abrahamson  at Newspace Center for Photography

Bobby Abrahamson’s Rabbit is a mixed-media documentary project using photography, journal entries, letters, emails, drawings, poetry, found objects and personal keepsakes to weave a lyrical narrative of a 14-year journey of wandering and searching for serenity and contentment in life.

The title Rabbit is based on native-American folklore that teaches how every human being has an “animal totem” that serves as their guardian spirit. Bobby’s totem of the rabbit signifies his impulse to keep running from his fears, and also his longing for connection and community. The story is personal, but not private. The installation and accompanying artist’s book present a universal tale: the struggle to escape life’s vicissitudes, and the quest for lasting peace.
