Kaitlin Maxwell
Photographer of Episode 4
Kaitlin Maxwell delves into the depths of vulnerability and intimacy, drawing parallels between (domestic) environments and personal diary entries. For her, these spaces trigger a profound reflection of the human experience, encapsulating vulnerability that is often difficult to articulate. “Being let into someone's space is such an intimate exchange to share”, she points out.
Kaitlin’s photography serves as a window into her life, exploring the intersections of themes such as self-reflection, identity, sexuality, femininity, and objectification. She is a photographer born in Florida in the early 90s. She received her BFA from the School of Visual Arts and her MFA from Yale School of Art, where she was awarded the Richard Benson Prize for excellence in photography. Her photographs have appeared in the New Yorker, the New York Times, Vogue Spain and Clan Photo Magazine.

I have to remind myself why I am a photographer because it's so close to me and I'm so hard on myself.
When I became an artist, I started seeing the world through that heavy veil, you know? The weight of empty spaces and how that's actually a really beautiful thing. Just being interested in signs of someone's presence without them actually being there.
I'm trying to connect with the world you know? I just I want to look for meaning in everything.
