Ed Templeton on Deanna Templeton's The Swimming Pool

"A young woman molts from her clothes, which fall to the concrete around her ankles, and steps to the edge of the pool without pretense leaving a small pile of material behind. The air surrounds her body with a flutter and the sun falls on foreign skin with a tickle. The water is still, and her figure is reflected inversely along with the surrounding wooden fence, plants, the neighbor’s house—an alternative universe waiting to be explored. She extends a toe softly down to the glassy sheet, just breaking the surface and emitting a mild sonar ripple from the point of impact. The surface water locks to her skin as it envelops her body shattering the mirror image into shards of undulating trapezoids as the water is displaced and scatters, sending chain reactions all directions that crash to the edge with a splash and back again in a chaos of energy." - From Ed Templeton's text in The Swimming Pool, Deanna Templeton's's new collection of Southern California underwater nudes.
