LaToya Ruby Frazier describes her work as “blurring the line between self-portraiture and social documentary.”
Her method of collaborating with the people she photographs, often her family, as well as voluntarily becoming the subject herself, is readily apparent in her latest exhibit, “A haunted capital.”
