Reworking the Family Album © Thomas Boyer

Untitled No.62 © Kerry Mansfield , Solo Exhibition Award Winner.
Merging the interior with the exterior, Kerry Mansfield uses reflections to layer the spaces in her Borderline series. Actively seeking instances where natural external space shifts seamlessly (yet unintentionally) into domestic structure.
Mansfield writes:
Throughout this exploration I have found an often harmonious union between man and nature. Mirrored, reflected and superimposed, the elements became interchangeable. The sky became ceilings. Trees became walls. Ground became floor. Air became windows. In the resulting photographs, the windows themselves vanish entirely while the outside pours inside and vice versa. Once a structure is built, we then believe ourselves separate or “safe” from the so-called chaotic influences of the natural world. What I have found is that, in many respects, what we really believe is an illusion of separateness. And we’ve chosen this as our reality.
Mansfield’s work will be showcased in a solo exhibition at the Center.

La Nueva Vida © Tami Bone; Juror’s Selection
The tag line on Texas based photographer Tami Bone’s website reads “ordinary beauty, everyday humanity” but what you will quickly realize is that there is nothing quite ordinary about Tami Bone’s images. Her softly focused two tone visions inject the ordinary with dream-like surreality.
She writes that her current project
…pulls fragments of memory and figments of imagination from a childhood spent growing up in the rough and tumble of deep South Texas.
Bone’s work was most recently featured at the Center in the Natural World exhibition and awarded Juror’s Selection by Susan Spiritus.
