Photographer Lisa Ahlberg’s stunning work always give me the feeling of that I know the people she photographs down to their toes. She wrote the following thoughts for her site last year:
“Working backwards, Lisa Ahlberg has been an airplane inspector and structures mechanic, photographer, gardener, floral arranger, truck assembler, textile machine operator, garment worker sewing swimsuits, terry cloth robes, women’s coats, women’s skirts and neck ties, knitting machine operator, sports jacket embroiderer and peanut factory packer. For many years she has been involved in the struggles of working people, unionists and family farmers. These experiences inform her work.”
