This image is printed on an archival cold press ink jet paper. This image was created in 2014 and reflective of the personal events surrounding a trip to the grocery store. During a warm summer day in Los Angeles and feeling like watermelon I head to the store to satisfy my urge. As I was walking out of the store I felt every eye on me and despite knowing my own worth couldn't help but sink to every negative stereotype associated with the days of slavery. When I got home I started to cut the watermelon in half and decided to photograph it on the chopping block, it felt as if it could have been the auction bock. Later on that week I decide to photograph the moon and recalling all the conspiracy surrounding reasons why we have never been back I immediately took an resilient stance on never letting that happen again by and creating, We Ain't Eva' Going Back. This image comes wax rolled and foam padded.

Photographer Frank Ishman has traveled extensively, living and working in various cities around the world. Frank received his education and training from Morehouse College and the Art Institute of Atlanta and learned everything he could while working with celebrated photographers Brigitte Lacombe, Mary Ellen Mark and Arnold Newman to name just a few. Bringing his unique vision, ardent sense of lighting, and strong work ethic to each shoot, Frank has produced an impressive collection of commercial, narrative and fine art work. Frank communicates through image, which provides him an outlet to release the strength of his reactions to the world around him. His narrative projects are often comprised of multiple images, merged and melded so completely that the viewer sees the project as a “whole,” rather than the sum of its parts. Frank moves between commercial and fine art styles easily, and enjoys incorporating one into the other while always maintaining his focus on the subject. From celebrities and CEO’s to rap stars and children, Frank’s commercial work includes advertising campaigns, celebrity portraiture, magazine spreads, non-profit assignments and fashion. Never without a camera, Frank's fine art work takes aim at the everyday, the subject and their environment - always evolving, always finding a unique way of documenting existence. In between projects Frank is a voracious reader, a skilled chef and a burgeoning sitar player. Born in Connecticut and raised in southern California, Frank is at home on sets having worked as a child actor for many years in Los Angeles. Frank has lived in London, India, New Zealand, Chicago, and now after more than a decade in New York, and after a brief stint in California Frank is now based in Chicago, right in the middle.
