Using constructed and found images, I aim to disclose and reveal photography’s ability to transform through work based on light and illusion. In these multidimensional sets I employ photographic tropes highlighting its […]

Bea Fremderman Work from her oeuvre. “The suburban nightmare pertains to placelessness. It is within subdivisions where individuality, desire and freedom homogenize to form a synthetic reality. As one dwells in this maze, a false sense of freedom delineates all that is true. From the confines of the office cubicle to the sovereignty of the […]

Roe Ethridge Work from his oeuvre. “Roe Ethridge arranges his large-format photographs into series whose precise meaning remains elusive. His gallery installations and book projects mix fine-art photographs and commercial images, including outtakes from his illustrational magazine work.

John Houck Work from his oeuvre. “In the world of photographic art, what matters more than where you focus your lens? We all see skylines, but which section interests the photographer most?

Jeff McLane Work from his oeuvre. “My current body of work is an on-going project focusing on image capture technology and photo abstraction.

Bobby Scheidemann Work from Nothing to Hide. “I compose self-portraits to explore the creative framework of gesture within the photograph. The images are depicting different tropes that serve as a canvas of visual influence — a mash up of autobiographical experiences and historical imagery. To reference (by referencing) myself as the picture taker in the […]
