ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
Images from three portfolios are featured in this exhibition:
In The Shadow of Puppets
Words in Search of a Photograph
Covering
Inspiration for my image-making comes primarily from Colombian writer Gabriel Garcia Marquez,
a Latin American author who developed the novel literary genre, Magic Realism, as a basis for storytelling.
‘Magic Realism’ is defined as “making use of magic elements in order to create an alternative to accepted reality.
Time exists in a kind of timeless fluidity.” While each series is different, this is the overarching concept
weaving them together. The images in this exhibition have no distinct psychological relationship; yet the distortion –
obscurity and ambiguity evident in each photograph -- establishes the artistic intention.
