Solo Exhibition at Blue Sky, Oregon Center for the Photographic Arts
Portland, Oregon.
August1 - August 31, 2024
Touching explores a sensory connection to images through material manipulation of instructional imagery, stock photography, and television clips. A tactile approach is taken to the handling of the photograph, implying physical action. Imagery from first-aid and anatomy texts are re-framed using wood panels and mirrored brass to distort and transform the original, potentially provoking a desire to see more. Hands printed on terry cloth become "hand towels," hanging in a suspended state. Collectively, Touching is intended to question how we physically interact with images and how they change over time.
