Lee Backer “Natural Abstractions”
“These images, taken in Death Valley and the White Mountains of
California, explore the varied rhythms created by light and shadow. I
found these rhythms in both landscapes and close-ups: the textures
and undulating forms of sand dunes, the stripes woven into the clay
hills, mosaic patterns in rock walls, and ripples of grain in ancient
Bristlecone Pines. The photographs are printed in black and white to
emphasize the shapes, patterns, and textures.”


Neil Lawner “Faces of Peru”
“Colorful dress is typical of the native rural Peruvians, exemplifying
the warmth and soul of the Peruvian people. These images were
created in Cusco, Machu Picchu and on the islands in Lake Titicaca,
close to the Bolivian border, in the summer of 2013. The genuine
warmth of their eyes and smiles is a window into a soul that is ‘muy
simpatico.”

Elizabeth Nahum-Albright “Papabear”
“My dad was Ray Bradbury’s bibliographer. I grew up in a world of
Martians and marionettes, surrounded by my dad’s collections:
bizarre masks, books, strange cabinets, and trinkets. Part of my dad
will always remain in this past; another part is current. The prints in
this series are created using Platinum/Palladium to accentuate the
obscured timeline I have created. This traditional process allows me
to share the world my father shares with me everyday.”

Sonia Toledo “Sense”
“I find inspiration in the power of women, relations between the
sexes and the primeval beauty of nature. This body of work is
designed to arouse the senses in the tradition of magical realism.
Passion fruit, mangosteens, snake fruit and tamarillos cure ailments
and provide nutrition, while their texture, taste, smell and beautiful
hues, as shown in these photographs, stir passions oftentimes
forbidden.”

Lois Youmans “Altared States”
“On a recent trip to Italy, so much of the experience felt familiar. In
the churches I felt like a child again, awed by the scale of the build-
ings, the vivid imagery and sense of a ‘presence.’ These memories
took hold of me, creating an altered state of mind.”
