My photograph, The length of the sky, is included in the exhibition Photography Without a Lens: An Exploration of Alternate Processes at the Rhode Island Center for Photographic Art.
The exhibition will run from June 17 through July 9, 2021, with a reception on Thursday, June 17, 2021, from 2:00 - 8:00 p.m.
The Rhode Island Center for Photographic Art is located at 118 North Main Street, 2nd floor, Providence, RI 02903, and can be reached by phone at 401-400-2542. Gallery hours are Thursdays through Saturdays, noon till 6:00pm, and by appointment.
The exhibition was originally planned for last summer, and since August 2020 has been available online.
RI Center Managing Director David DeMelim explains that the show could include
any alternate form of image capture from pinhole to scanner and all forms of contact printing and alternate printmaking processes. We included toy cameras and a number of other LoFi approaches to be able to more fully explore what is possible without the aid of a high end camera system. In the age of the selfie, with the ability to share an image around the world in a matter of moments, we sought to present a selection of work to inspire a renewed interest in how images are converted into physical objects.
The juror for Photography Without a Lens: An Exploration of Alternate Processes was fine art photographer, master printer, curator, and educator Ann Jastrab, who is Executive Director of the Center for Photographic Art in Carmel, CA.
