Photographs Off the Wall: Jan. 8 – Feb. 2, 2025

Soho Photo Gallery, 15 White Street, NYC. 1/8 – 2/2, 2025.
Reception: Thursday, January 9, 6 – 8 pm.

Accordion

Join Soho Photo for an exhibit of handmade books, digital publications, photo card sets, and other photographic objects beyond the traditional matted and framed print hanging on the wall. I will be exhibiting 11 accordion folded prints.

From my artist statement: “These hand-made accordion folded prints are images from my ‘Holgarama’ series. The folding allows for longer imagery than I typically exhibit, as they are each made from a full roll of medium format film, instead of the usual half of a roll. The pictures were shot using a $20 plastic camera (that is no longer made) called the Holga. The long overlapping images are created by only partially advancing the film between exposures – the overlapping occurs in the film itself.”

Each image is about 4 feet wide if forced flat. Fully folded they fit into a clear cigarette box sized package, with a ‘Lucky Strike’ inspired label (just for fun). They can be displayed fanned out on end; the zig-zag creates a piece about 24 inches in width.

Below are the available images:

Brand New: Feb 1 – 29, 2024

Online Group Show
Treat Gallery, treatgallery.org, 2/1 – 2/29/24.

From the Treat Gallery Website: “Reinvention is no stranger to the contemporary art world. Artists have had to pivot repeatedly, most recently; during the recession, the coronavirus pandemic, and the rise of artificial intelligence. To reinvent is to change (something) so much that it appears to be entirely new, or to take up a very different job or way of life. To re-establish something as new is to begin a process, or make significant changes or improvements to (something.) Words commonly associated with reinvention are: transform. disrupt. redesign. experiment. modify. reclaim. Artists were challenged to create and submit new work following these visual or conceptual guidelines.”

Exhibitors include: Alina Andriushchenko, Allen Morris, Amie Hollmann, Blaine White, Cheryl Safren, Daria Burobina, Farras Abdelnour, Jia Hao, John Romi, Luke Woodford, Marni Mutrux, Matt Perrin, Michael N. Meyer, Randall Steinke, Sabrina Skinner and Susan Bowen.


The below two images from my spills series are included in the show.

Times Square Susan Bowen
 
This was my first exhibited print, which was accepted into Soho Photo Gallery’s annual national photography competition exactly 20 years ago!

Interesting note: When I submitted to the competition I submitted slides I took of contact prints… as at that point I had not yet made my first print (well since college anyway). And I was accepted.

The print I ultimately made for the exhibition was this gelatin-silver print done using an 8×10 enlarger.

This was amongst my first overlapping exposure Holga pictures, a Times Square image shot for a four-week class at the New School (where I was first introduced to the Holga).
