I’m happy to share that our ImageMakers group exhibition “Frame of Mind” is traveling to the Carl Cherry Center for the Arts in January. I invite you to both the opening reception on 1/12 and the “Meet the Artists” event on 1/27. Details in the announcement below.
About this exhibition:
Each photographer has provided a “frame of mind” statement to accompany their image which gives some insight into their creative process. Are they telling a story, conveying a message, expressing a feeling, mood or emotion, communicating an idea? How do they accomplish their objective – use of light, color, line, shapes or forms, techniques?
As viewers, we draw on our own experiences, thoughts, and emotions to form our response to any work of art. We invite you to explore the interaction between your own “frame of mind” and that of the artists in this diverse exhibition.
