Weight up, Head Space!

Kyrie Rose Osborne

Whether standing up or lying down, the capacity above your head is a sizable amount. Ceilings weigh a ton(s), but brighten the space. A vertical dimension where lightness is heavy. It is also where perspectives can flop ceilings into floors and allow daydreams to unfold. Major air that can't be caught, but felt. A solid volume of imagination and light. All created by tipping your head higher and gazing heavenward.

Places Touched

Tara Briones

Home is one of the most intimate spaces we can be in. W are constantly leaving traces of ourselves in each room, details of our movements creating a memory of our daily routines.  Here I am documenting these small moments that represent a fraction of what we do and who we are.

GLIMPSES OF DREAMS: MEMORIES OF JAPAN

KIYOKO NOGI SIMMONS

These photos were taken by the iPhone which was set to automatically take a photo every five minutes when my husband and I were in Japan. The iPhone, on a strap around his neck, took its photos without any intervention from us all day long. These “accidental” images suggested new insights into assessing photographs. The displayed photos represent a curation of a few of the many images captured by the iPhone.  These images were inspired by the Japanese post-war artist group who founded the “Provoke” movement. The artists established a radical new esthetic called “Are, Bure, Boke” (grainy/rough, blurry, and out-of-focus). The scenes appearing in dreams are often ambiguous and distorted, and such style of photography allows the viewers to interpret and fill in the blanks.
