More on Rachel Demy: Rachel Demy (b. 1982, San Diego, CA) is a fine art photographer, writer, and educator based in Seattle, Washington. She employs a non-linear approach to her work, which covers themes of trauma, addiction, and all manner of human experience considered difficult to look at directly.
