Corrie Witt is a photographer based in Columbus, Ohio. She received her BA in photography from Columbia College and her MFA in photography from the University of Illinois at Chicago. In addition to RAiR, she has received an Illinois Arts Council Grant, a City of Chicago CAAP Grant and a Jentel Foundation residency. She is currently finishing her M.Ed at Ohio State University and is a National Board-certified art teacher with Columbus City Schools.
For the past five years, I have been photographically exploring domestic spaces in a body of work collectively titled At Home. Recognizing the house as a container of memories and dreams, I investigate the dichotomy and balance between psychological residue and physical presence. I photograph both actual domestic spaces and dollhouse-scale models and use ambiguous scale and shallow depth of field to blur the distinctions between construct and reality.
