Through collage, Tulloch maintains a thread between past and future with her ability to form new connections within the image composition. The work continues to evolve, including through its usage of contemporary newspaper images. Tulloch's use of photomontage allows her to refocus the media, recompose the image and ultimately to rediscover and repurpose the photographic subject.Sarah Tulloch holds a First Class honors degree from the Bristol School of Art and a Design and Distinction, Master of Fine Arts from Newcastle University. She concentrates on a close-range investigation of found photographs as both objects with specific material qualities and images in themselves. Her book, published by Daylight Books, is supported by the Arts Council England. Tulloch has been exhibited by Plus Arts Projects, the Mayor's Parlour, London, Baltic 39, and MIMA Emerging Curators.

As a seeker of mystery and lover of solitude, the quietude of this land, with its watery blues and gentle, enveloping grays, Sanjuan immediately felt an intimate connection with the muted snowscape. Silent Snow urges one to pause, to explore, as Elizabeth does, the lessons of the single tree; strength in solitude and the will to withstand any storm.Elizabeth Sanjuan is a visual artist whose images examine the people, landscape, and man-made surroundings that define and shape our cultures and communities.

Ross The photographs in Silent Stages set the scene for dramatic urban narratives, like theatrical stages or movie sets. At the same time, they constitute artifacts from various stages of the artist’s life, visual traces of the sedimentary layers that have quietly accumulated atop one another over time. Dreyfack sees them almost as relics from a personal archeological dig—a layered visual memoir that emerges from the artist’s dual Franco-American identity. All of the images, shot over the past five years around New York or Paris, establish visual and thematic parallels and equivalencies between the two seemingly disparate poles of the artist’s life. Ken Dreyfack is a nationally exhibiting artist. Ken was awarded second prize for The Photo Review’s 2018 competition, juried by MOMA photography curator Sarah Meister. His work was selected for Photography Now 2018 at CPW and was awarded a silver prize at the 2019 San Francisco Bay International Photography Competition. David A. Ross is former director of the Whitney Museum, and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. He is currently the Chair of the MFA Art Practice program at the School of Visual Arts. View Details
