Nora Herting

Art by Nora Herting Based on photographs taken during cheerleading competitions, these photographs are unmanipulated documents of the performers they depict; each tableau was created in real time as part of a routine. The girl's are placed in front of colorfully flocked backgrounds patterned with hybrid cheerleading-floral motifs the subjects become stand-ins for their competitive, athletic and stage-managed worlds.
