Four artists traveling in their own orbits, coming into alignment |
| Exhibiting their work together for the second time, four established fine-art photographers present unique interpretations of their art. Each showing a thematic series, the four artists explore and examine the medium of photography, pushing the boundaries of process, composition, and content. Thoughtful and thought-provoking, this exhibition is also a simple delight to the eye. |

Will Gibson I have always used the camera in order to see what my own eyes cannot. In this instance, the camera can see only the infrared spectrum. For the Visualizing the Unseen, no visible light was recorded in the images. With film in the early 2000’s and now in digital, a marvelous invisible world is revealed.

Jodie Hulden Just This is a portfolio of images taken in Kyoto, Japan. The portfolio is the result of a search for intimate scenes that honor Japan’s reverence for nature and simple beauty. The images are meant to be visual haiku, each re-creating a spontaneous experience or perception of the artist. In that spirit the portfolio speaks to the heart of “just this” – consisting of poems, both visual and written, that evoke a simple experience that can never be repeated or adequately described, but nevertheless made one stop before it in deep recognition of something profound in its beauty and singularity, its “suchness”.

Kurt Lightfoot On The Urban Stage is a digital photography based body-of-work where the urban setting is analogous to a theatrical stage that humans use to dramatically act out their personal and collective narratives. Such narratives include public artists making strong visual statements, energetic protests raising awareness with the goal of creating societal change, cruising car culture expressing itself for the sake of itself, and personal statements looking for an audience.

Will Gibson Mediterranean Sketchbook is the latest collection of the artist’s Optical Abstractions series. This body of work is candid street photography captured intentionally out of focus. The resulting images lack detail, yet emphasize gesture, color, and composition, revealing a magical world unavailable to the unaided eye. Click here to open photographer's website |

Charles Ingham In Los Angeles Blue Notes, the artist documents the sites of former jazz clubs, the former homes of jazz musicians, and the locations of jazz-related institutions in the Greater Los Angeles area. Photo-narratives, combining images and texts, are accompanied by commentaries detailing these often-forgotten sites and their relevance to both the region’s history and continuing cultural struggles.

Jodie Hulden Photo Quatrains began amid the current pandemic with the artist’s daily walks down backstreets and alleys of San Diego. Alleys are a forgotten microcosm of those elements and activities that lie hidden within the everyday. They are also a continual surprise and place of discovery. These small pieces are arranged in four “verses” as visual odes to the beauty and constancy of change and impermanence in the world around us and in our lives.

Kurt Lightfoot Isolation can feel entrapping or freeing. Narratives With Isolation uses visual metaphors and symbols to create in the viewer's perception and emotions an experience that includes isolation. But isolation is not the whole story — hence narratives with isolation, not narratives about isolation. Click here to open photographer's website
