Marbles Gallery: Friday, 17 July 2009

Opening Reception Friday, July 17 from 6-9 p.m. Meet the artists, enjoy a glass of wine. Free and open to the public

Sally B. Simpson photographs under natural lighting situations, with very little or no use of camera filters to capture the beauty and simplicity of everyday subjects using a variety of camera types, including the medium format 120 film toy camera, the Holga. Intrigued by places and subjects that exhibit a haunting sense of abandonment, as well as images that evoke a strong sense of familiarity and simplicity, Simpson chooses to photograph with her Holga often. With its cheap construction, images produced from the Holga often yield photographs with characteristic light leaks, blurs and vignetting, adding depth and individuality to each photograph.

Mark Tiedemann, premiers his black and white art photography inspired by the work of Ansel Adams, Edward Weston, and other members of the f64 Group. During his commercial photography career as a proficient black and white lab technician, he has continuously recorded and printed but never shown his own work.
