| Description of Exhibition: | |
| Photosynthesis is a visual expression of three artists Christopher Brumfield, Jason Chaffin and Heather Weathers.
Christopher Brumfield ‘s work in the show is part of an ongoing photo series with collections of blue objects. The objects have cultural, personal, and art historical connotations that become more interesting when combined. I believe the intersection of narratives, specifically narratives involving objects, start to paint a picture of cultural and personal relationships to those objects and individual narratives. I am very attached to the color blue because my mother had four boys in three years and she assigned us each a color. My color was blue and I’m stuck to it. Jason Chaffin’s statement on his piece “ Hot Dog”: In the late twentieth century, at my choice of undergraduate institution, photography and new media were lumped together, meaning access to sculpture or fiber or whatever main bent one may hold, but additional duties and instruction in all things photography. I am using an extraordinarily common and mundanely-charged American object (hot dog and bun) color-altered in these remembered mistranslated chromatic variations and relationships, to simultaneously describe both the unexpected beauty of the endless potential of diversity and the horror of modern day America brought about by those who view diversity as some kind of terrifying and horrorful wrong. Heather Weathers is using mixed media and photography to represent a women perspective on current social issues. She is combining the framework of traditional woman’s work with contemporary images. Isolated images of women show where their voices would vibrate individual statements of who they are in our current world. Brumfield , Chaffin and Weathers show a personal point of view. The subject matter is direct and complex. Let us wash your eyeballs with our synchronized optics. |
