'The Great Leap Forward' 2007⁠ © Ave Pildas
'The Great Leap Forward' 2007⁠ © Ave Pildas

I've been traveling for 60 plus years. I ran away from home after high school at 17. It only lasted 3 months. After college, I headed the East Coast then on to Europe.⁠ As a photographer, I live and breathe adventure. New people and places, are like new blood. During this pandemic, I am not traveling. I am bored to death. So, I am sharing with you past travels and the people that have crossed my path.⁠

'Metro Mannequins' 1975 Ave Pildas
'Metro Mannequins' 1975 Ave Pildas

"Mannequins and dummies": I've been drawn to mannequins since I was young. So real, so unreal. When I began taking pictures, they became a subject to photograph. I now have a 45 year collection of mannequins images. Mannequins changed from culture to culture, in France and Northern Europe, they tend to be thinner, the style of clothes change in Latin America and they have big butts, and in India and Southeast Asia they are often recycled mannequins from the U S, many missing hands, feet and heads. I especially like when mannequins interact with humans. No matter where they are, they are a fantasy. I try to show them in their environment.⁠

'Worlds Biggest Entertainer' ⁠1980⁠ Ave Pildas

"Animal Antics" documents my observations over 40 years of humans interactions with animals. These observations have occurred worldwide. My subjects include not only living specimens, but also our representations of animals and monuments to them. We love animals as pets, revere them as creatures of nature, gawk at them in zoos, consume them as food, hunt them for sport, display them as trophies and adorn ourselves with their skins and fur. They serve us in many ways. Check back tomorrow for more "Animal Antics".⁠
