Photographs by Ruth Raskin on Display at the Mamaroneck Artists Guild Gallery

Scarsdale resident Ruth Raskin's photos are now on exhibit through September 28 at the Mamaroneck Artists Guild Gallery in Larchmont.

Here are her words about the show. "Carl Jung coined the term The Shadow Self in 1912. In psychology it refers to a person's dark, repressed side--those parts of ourselves we don't want to acknowledge much less reveal to other people. For this show, My Shadow Self is a way for me, a camera-shy photographer, to avoid more classic self-portraits while sharing something (but not too much) about myself. In this exhibit I invite the viewer to interpret what I am disclosing and what I am hiding in these dark, sometimes cryptic, sometimes lighthearted, photographs."
