How Meatyard made a stage set of his native Kentucky to portray his circle of friends and compose his eerie tableauxStages for Being examines the photography that Ralph Eugene Meatyard created in and around Lexington, Kentucky, where he found abandoned houses in the countryside to use as sets, and directed friends and family members in scenes that suggest both ritual and theater. An autodidact in areas as diverse as jazz, painting, literature, history and Zen Buddhism, his voracious reading sparked endless ideas for his carefully constructed photographs. Establishing mood with natural lighting, he used masks, dolls and found objects as unsettling props and mined architectural detail for abstract compositional elements.Meatyard culled inspiration from a wide variety of sources.
His process was also informed by consistent dialogue with a robust group of Kentucky
