“Painter Georgia O’Keefe has said that “to see takes time.” Photographer Jett Ulaner Sarachek uses the simplest camera and long time exposures….but the bigger investment is the exploration of the scene that occurs before the shot is taken. Sarachek likes the physical participation, the sense of intimacy created by such a close interaction…
Through the use of long exposures, movement becomes spiritual.”

C.J. King, Manchester Journal

“Like a steam kettle and a stew, the smell of creation was fertile….small and larger bodies of work appeared and were assimilated…Her work has a maturity and an undulating emotional precision. It is as if it were the touch of silence, and through it the feel of life itself.”

Larry Fink, Martins Creek, 2002

“While all photographs fix a particular moment in time, Ulaner Sarachek’s photographs fix intently the memory and the emotion of each moment that she photographs…She has done so in such a way as to reveal a deep sense of beauty even within sadness and pain.”

“Jett Ulaner Sarachek takes dreamy, fairly exotic bodypart landscapes with a pinhole camera and elegant, hungry still life/landscapes with a quirky camera.”

Geoff Gehman, The Morning Call

“I like Jett’s pinhole work the best, because it has a kind of physical quietness which allows the viewer to walk into a sensual time capsule and find the beauty alone or to share the beauty that Jett sees.”

“Water has been a kind of muse for photographer Jett Ulaner Sarachek. On the rocky, secluded beaches of the small island of Vieques, at swimming pools, she has captured moments of luminous calm, mystery…..Liquid becomes satin light, and the air is charged.  Sarachek brings a patient presence to this process, which yields images with an exquisite, visceral sense of atmosphere.”

“She brings an open mind and a clear eye to every new experience. Her eagerness to experiment communicates a joy in life’s unpredictability. For all its mystery and illusion, her work is never cluttered with false pretensions but rather, is refreshingly simple and forthright on an emotional level.”
