Posted by Brianna Kusilek on

At the heart of Tim Veling's work is the psychological landscape and nowhere is this more evident than in his series Vestiges. These photographs were taken after the devastating earthquakes that hit Christchurch, New Zealand in September 2010 and February 2011, the latter taking the lives of 185 people. Vestiges shows some of the damage done to the environment; the flooding, the land subsidence, the liquefaction.

NEW DIGITAL FEATURE: Alice Hargrave: Paradise Wavering

Posted by Brianna Kusilek on

Alice Hargrave has spent the past five years traveling and photographing in prairies, mangrove swamps, tropical forests, and other exotic locales, as well as in urban forest preserves and other places she encounters closer to home. Immersing herself in these landscapes, she detaches from her ordinary life, using her camera and the sensuous terrain of the land as her guideposts. Hargrave makes clear one of the quintessential realities of human experience: the vivid, real, lived circumstances of being present in a place cannot be preserved. Text by Allison Grant. Read the story here.  Get the book here.

Location:SE Center for PhotographyGreenville, South CarolinaOpening Reception:Friday, June 03, 6 - 8 PMExhibition Dates:June 03 - August 25 "Portal" is about entering a world that is exotic, mystical, spiritual and maybe even a little bit dangerous.

Leah Sobsey: Collections

Posted by Brianna Kusilek on

SPRING 2016 BOOK RELEASE Collections is a volume of images that intersect nineteenth century photographic processes and twenty-first century digital technology. Sobsey photographs bird skins, bleached bones, clipped ferns, and tattered shoes that she unearths from the dark drawers of national park museum collections.

The subject matter of each series she creates is dictated by her discoveries, bridging past to present, honoring both the specimens she works with and the medium of photography. Her project is particularly timely during this centennial year of national parks service, and...
