Corey Arnold’s Fish Work

29-img_7263horseThirteen years ago, photographer Corey Arnold took a job as a fisherman in Alaska as an adventurous way to pay off his student loans. The resulting photographs have been exhibited in galleries around the world, and have earned Arnold recognition as one of this year’s 30 new and emerging photographers to watch by Photo District News. In his collections “Fish-Work Bering Sea” and “Fish-Work Norway,” fishermen clutch their catches lovingly or recline blissfully on a seemingly endless haul of crabs. In “Human Animals,” Arnold takes a land-bound look at the surreal relationship between people, pets and the wild.  Read more about him in his interview on Juxtapoz and in his own words on Fecal Face.
