Discussing His Roots and Land Possessions in Beebe, Donavon Smallwood Reminisces About His Heritage
In a departure from his well-known project, "Languor," which focuses on Central Park and the history of Seneca Village, New York-based photographer Donavon Smallwood is working on a new project called Beebe. This new endeavour delves into the roots of his paternal family in the small town of Washington, North Carolina.
Beebe is an ongoing exploration that captures intimate portraits of family, friends, land, and water in this quaint North Carolina town. The project includes photographs of the natural environment, specifically the water that fractures the land, as well as the Beebe Chapel, a church of significant importance to Smallwood's family history.
The Beebe Chapel, located in smalltown Washington, North Carolina, still stands with its foundation and burial grounds. This chapel holds a special place in Smallwood's family history, as his earliest known ancestor was a member of the church. The chapel's burial grounds are situated near his grandmother's home, providing a deep personal connection to the location.
Through Beebe, Smallwood intends to explore and document his family's history in smalltown Washington, North Carolina. His work, as always, intimately examines places tied to personal and collective histories, offering a unique insight into the lives and stories of his family and the town itself.
While further details about Beebe may be found through direct interviews or the artist’s official channels, this news article serves as a glimpse into the fascinating new direction Smallwood's photography is taking. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting project.
