Kathryn Dunlevie says of her series, 'ENTANGLEMENT', "Recent human activity has brought about environmental change on a colossal scale. As increased levels of carbon dioxide in our air cause temperatures and sea levels to rise, the ecosystems upon which animals and plants depend suffer along with all our natural and developed environments.

We can no longer avoid the fact that all aspects of the physical world are intricately linked. Discoveries in quantum physics, moreover, teach us that even at the subatomic level, quantum entanglement can cause particles to become interrelated and affected by each other’s behavior.

To illustrate this interconnectedness, I am combining my photos of zoos and natural history museums with those of contemporary urban settings. The compositions suggest our planet’s current state of disruption and the strange bedfellows this disruption creates.

As I build each composition, interweaving elements from the natural world with images from constructed spaces, displaced animals materialize in anomalous locations. Stunned to find themselves in alien surroundings – disoriented, mistrustful, even forlorn – they mutely proclaim their vulnerability, and remind us of our own."

Kathryn Dunlevie is a photography-based artist whose work has been exhibited throughout the U.S. and internationally. Cathy Kimball, former Executive Director of the San Jose Institute of Contemporary Art, writes of Dunlevie’s work:"
Through brilliant compositional detail and manipulation, she creates disconcerting, surprising, inexplicable spaces and scenarios – streetscapes that elude mapmakers, and interior settings that are almost, but not quite, right.
"Born on the east coast, Dunlevie lived in six different states by the time she was 12, and in Paraguay when she was 16. She has a B.A. in fine arts from Rice University, and studied art history and film at the University of Paris, painting at California College of the Arts, and photography in Madrid. She lives in Palo Alto.

Dunlevie has received numerous awards and fellowships, including two Arts Council Silicon Valley Artist Laureate Fellowships. Her work has been exhibited at FotoFest International since 2002, at the Pingyao International Photography Festival in China, at Studio Thomas Kellner in Germany, in the US Art in Embassies Program in Moscow and in Saatchi Arts’ Best of 2014. Her work has been reviewed in Spain’s La Fotografia Actual, Korea’s photo + and Germany’s Profifoto, as well as in The New York Times, Camerawork: A Journal of Photographic Arts, Photo Metro, Artweek, and Artlies.

Kevin Lyle says, "As long as I can remember, I've been curious about incidental objects and environments and their potential for a sort of extraordinary/ordinary beauty. I find this quality in the work of photographer Eugene Atget, composer Erik Satie and singer-songwriter Woody Guthrie. These great artists are a constant source of inspiration.

My process is fueled by an innate hunter/gatherer impulse. Most of my images are collected within walking distance of my home on Chicago's north side. Contemplative wandering in the urban analog world, away from the preponderance of drama delivered digitally via television and the Internet, reveals evidence of real life - evidence of what may be, may have happened or may yet occur. Sometimes mundane, sometimes oblique, askew or atypical. Mostly overlooked, until documented.

I am, for the most part, self taught. I first became interested in art around the age of 12. Art class became the most interesting part of school. After high school I attended the Cleveland Institute of Art for one semester before realizing that art school was not for me at that time.

After moving to Chicago my first job turned into a career in computers and systems management and I did little or no art for many years. I've always had an inclination to collect. Collecting African masks and the process of photographing them for documentary purposes led to a broader interest in photography. When I began going for long walks to search for photographic material I soon realized the exercise and fresh air were an added bonus to this pursuit of collecting images."

Dreamer and the Dream
This greatest mystery unveils a deeper gleam
the day we learn
that there's no difference
between the dreamer 
& the dream
(poem by Jared Mulhair)

The Embrace
There is a magical place between friends, if you look closely here you can see the fleeting moment of the soul reaching out, to hold on tight, to be present, all that is needed is to connect.  I found them just before their souls merged for a moment and became light.

Transparent
Illuminate me when you reach the light

Larry Miller says, "I hope to conjure up a visual and emotional response by presenting a precautionary tale of a future environment. Many people think climate change is a distant issue or they have not yet been directly exposed to it. It is not linked to their personal experiences. The initial images I create are images viewers can relate to and are non-threatening. I use landscapes and still life to accomplish this. I then recontextualize the images, through computer generated visualizations, to create a new narrative. It is not necessarily the most concerning environmental issues that inspire responses but the images that are most evocatively articulated."

Lynda Fay Braun says, "In these images, I feel that I am not altering reality, but finding interesting elements and coaxing them forward. I am not inventing the colors, but coaxing  previously hidden, but inherent, color out.

My tools are an iPhone 11, and the latest update of Photoshop. 

To these I bring a lifetime of looking at the world with a painter's eye. By that I mean, looking without naming, and observing the physical world in terms of line, shape and color.  I consistently find patterns and order in the seeming chaos. My eye is always working, discovering balance and beauty, preferably in a new and surprising way.
The way I see it, my role as an artist is to create a sense of wonder. I am not much interested in looking at what is an obvious reality. In the processes I employ, natural elements become purely line, and abstraction, through which there is evoked human emotions.

Like meditation, with my camera in hand, I have a daily photo practice that connects me deeply with nature. When I focus the camera on a moment in time that catches my eye and click the shutter, Im saying ‘Thank you’, not only for the existence of what I just photographed, but for life itself."

Lynda brings to her artwork the sensibility developed from years of meditation and a year spent in India. Finding order and beauty in the chaos of life is what drives all her artistic research. She explores the phenomena of dynamic fluidity, ranging from the rhythmic flow of water, wind and light to her experience of rhythm in dance. This quest has taken Lynda’s process from the production of large-format paintings to the current photo-based digital prints.

Ms Braun spent her early years between the rugged environment of the Adirondacks and the museums of New York City. A natural attraction toward the ineffable combined with an affinity towards nature and an independent spirit compelled her to seek a life in art. After undergraduate studies at Cooper Union School of Art and an MFA in Painting from Cornell University, Lynda was awarded a residency at the Wurlitzer Foundation in Taos, NM. There she continued a mentorship with contemporary artist Agnes Martin, who is well-known for her spiritual minimalist grid paintings and drawings composed of horizontal and vertical lines, a relationship that began while Braun was a Fine Art student receiving an MFA from Cornell University and continued until Martin’s passing.

Lynda’s work has been presented in solo and group exhibitions around the U.S. Her paintings and prints are in numerous corporate, and public collections including Neiman Marcus Collection, The Ritz Carlton Collection, von Liebig Art Center, Naples, FL, and Cornell University Permanent Collection.

CURATOR ELLEN JANZTEN REVIEW:
"I feel this image best fits the theme of this exhibition as it looks beyond the surface by creating a simulation of a three dimensional view of nature. It seems that one could actually fit the pieces together to form a decagon (ten-sided polygon) to reveal something deeper and unexpected. Also, I love how Lynette left the guidelines visible to help inform her process."

Jantzen asks Miller:
"Lynette - I love all three pieces you entered. What prompted you to work in this manner? I especially am intrigued with the geometrical nature of nature; was this your intent? How does the use of drop shadows inform your subjects?"

Lynette Miller says,"I’ve always been very much attracted to the abstract and conceptual possibilities presented by photographic imagery.  

The idea that there is more to reality than what is observable, measurable, or optically possible has long been a theme in my work. But how can the experience of nature or of the sublime be quantified? The challenge to describe or reveal the disparities between  organic, natural form and geometrical, mathematical truth intrigues me.

Your question regarding the use of drop shadows is a good one. In my mind they create the illusion of 3 dimensional forms hovering over the surface. Sometimes they dissolve into or emerge from the surface,  always  referencing  the two dimensionality of photography."
 
Lynette Miller says, "No other medium renders perceptible reality more accurately than photography, and that forms the basis of my attraction to it. But there are some obvious limitations when representing only what can emit or absorb light.  Landscape photography may serve as the starting point for my images, but  digital manipulation enables me to explore dimensional space, time, perception and illusion.

While I’m surely not a mathematician, I do have an ongoing interest in how numbers, pattern, quantification and geometry are used to describe the world. This has led to a lot of reading on quantum physics and multi-dimensional wonderings that have found their way into my image making.

On the surface, these images may call attention to visual aspects of land and experience of place, but the superimposed geometric constructions and mathematical diagrams invite viewers to consider the invisible or conceptual aspects of space. Is there more to reality than what is observable, measurable, or optically possible."
 
Lynette Miller received her MFA in Photography from SUNY Buffalo, taught darkroom photography at Niagara University  and digital photography at Asheville-Buncombe Technical Community College. Her work explores alternative, innovative ways of creating and conceptualizing art, and has been exhibited both nationally and internationally. Her studio is in Black Mountain, NC.

Michael Manning is a Boston-based artist and photographer whose work explores deep psychological and emotional states, personal trauma and the act of documentation itself through a variety of visual languages and media. Metaphor and symbol, the masculine and feminine, a celebration of light and an intense love for nature are throughout. Photography, mixed-media painting and collage are favorite mediums.  

One recent body of work, ‘Blue, Between Two Voices’, is an ongoing and evolving series of double-exposures, made particularly in New England watershed areas of environmental concern. These blue-toned monochrome photographic images are all made in camera, one and then the second, within a few moments of each other. Often involving dance-like movement the making of the images becomes a conversation with place itself. In documenting these environmentally challenged areas the artist aims to more fully express the beauty and fragility of place while pushing the boundaries of landscape photography and abstraction. The final images celebrate the landscape and the image while inviting an investigation into our relationship with nature.

In the studio he is working on a series of mixed-media paintings with complex textures using polymers, acrylics and enamels. The paintings are abstract but have allusions to figure and landscape.
Michael currently lives and works in the Inman Square area of Somerville and Cambridge. 

He was the recipient of an individual artist’s grant through the Mass Cultural Council during the pandemic and was a Lucie Foundation finalist for their call, ‘Notions of Home’, he has recently exhibited at the Bromfield Gallery in Boston, and had two pieces in a show at the Cultural Center of Cape Cod called, ‘Remembering’, looking back on the tragedy of 9/11.

Plans for a solo show at the Cultural Center of Cape Cod for summer 2022 are in the works. 

Note on the submitted works:
These images are from a new body of work, ‘Blue, Between Two Voices’. All images are double-exposures made in camera within a few seconds of each other as a fresh celebration, and investigation, of nature and environment. Global warming drives my attempts to renegotiate my relationship with nature."

Nancy Stalnaker Bundy says, "I am intrigued with a “sense of place” – recently with the Minnesota Iron Range where there is a feeling of collision between past and present and a tension between the way it was during the mining era and the way it exists today.

Surrounded with history, the landscape suggests metaphors for the space and the people living there. My photography often demonstrates an interest in polarities – in the juxtaposition between the protected and the vulnerable, the old and the new, the relaxed and the methodical. I am fascinated with artifacts and their relationship to humanity. Intrigued with making connections, I enjoy the cultural codes they create. My exploration of the Minnesota Iron Range is an ongoing project that reflects on my perception of its environment, history and character."

Nancy Stalnaker Bundy (formerly Norwood) is a Minneapolis based artist, photographer and teacher.  Her photographs and video art work have been exhibited nationally for which she has received numerous grants and awards. She holds an MFA from State University of New York through the Visual Studies Workshop and a BFA from the Memphis College of Art.

Nancy Oliveri is an American fine art photographer born in Providence, Rhode Island in 1958. She studied film and photography at Hartford Art School in Connecticut in the early eighties and has lived and worked in Brooklyn since. Recently she was featured in the New York Responds Exhibition at the Museum of the City of New York from December 2020 through May 2021 and was selected for the Women Street Photographers Exhibition in January 2021 curated by Gulnara Samoilova at PS109 El Barrio, NYC.

Her nine self published books have received numerous awards and acknowledgements including the Tokyo International Photo Awards, The PX3- Paris de la Photographie, the Julia Margaret Cameron Awards in Berlin and Barcelona,  the Pollux Awards in Barcelona and most recently her book 2020 book Mermaids of Coney Island was a finalist in the Urban Street Awards and exhibited in Photo Days in Trieste, Italy. Her work has been featured in Musee Magazine, L'Oeil, The SouthxSoutheast Magazine of Photography and Float among others.

Nancy Oliveri says, "The Feast of San Genaro in Little Italy resumed this year after the  Covid pandemic on a brilliant fall day in September.

The tradition that  began here in 1926 was brought here by Italian Immigrants to honour the patron Saint of Naples, Saint Januarius. As a young film student I saw the festival through the lens of Martin Scorsese in he cinematic classic Mean Streets and Godfather movies.  Now, in the reemergence after the Covid quarantine I saw smiles, distinctly Italian-American  style, great color and lipstick, joy and shiny long hair among the gracious crowd.

Everyone was eating and was very polite. I focused my camera on  a background of smoke of sausage and onion, with golden afternoon light and dark shadowy compositions and loved the sights and smells and watched people walk by as if on a stage. When I came home to edit the photosI saw something different. I had captured hallucinatory images of sleepwalkers, stunned, dislocated, partially off-camera with a sense of apprehension and anxiety, in the fragmented and compositionally obtuse photographs.

The figures hint that they're walking though a Medieval plague where the smoke of incense hides the smell of death. Beyond the photographs, we are currently in the middle of an existential crisis in our Constitutional Republic while still in the grips of a primitive virus that has ravaged the country and exposed our our very deep character flaws bordering on madness and self destruction.I wondered if that's what is hidden right beneath the surface, if everyone knows this and what comes next on some level.

I had photographed something very different from what I thought I had experienced as a golden afternoon. Photographs can tell the truth because the medium, like film directly connects to our individual and collective unconscious if you look below the surface.

Nancy Oliveri says, "The Feast of San Genaro in Little Italy resumed this year after the  Covid pandemic on a brilliant fall day in September.

The tradition that  began here in 1926 was brought here by Italian Immigrants to honour the patron Saint of Naples, Saint Januarius. As a young film student I saw the festival through the lens of Martin Scorsese in he cinematic classic Mean Streets and Godfather movies.  Now, in the reemergence after the Covid quarantine I saw smiles, distinctly Italian-American  style, great color and lipstick, joy and shiny long hair among the gracious crowd.

Everyone was eating and was very polite. I focused my camera on  a background of smoke of sausage and onion, with golden afternoon light and dark shadowy compositions and loved the sights and smells and watched people walk by as if on a stage. When I came home to edit the photosI saw something different. I had captured hallucinatory images of sleepwalkers, stunned, dislocated, partially off-camera with a sense of apprehension and anxiety, in the fragmented and compositionally obtuse photographs.

The figures hint that they're walking though a Medieval plague where the smoke of incense hides the smell of death. Beyond the photographs, we are currently in the middle of an existential crisis in our Constitutional Republic while still in the grips of a primitive virus that has ravaged the country and exposed our our very deep character flaws bordering on madness and self destruction.I wondered if that's what is hidden right beneath the surface, if everyone knows this and what comes next on some level.

I had photographed something very different from what I thought I had experienced as a golden afternoon. Photographs can tell the truth because the medium, like film directly connects to our individual and collective unconscious if you look below the surface.
