Curator Statement -- John Eastman
One of the magic elements of photography is that the photographer has the opportunity to present to the viewer an image, captured for a split second or less, maybe never existing again in that context. It is through their eyes, and of their lens, that a type of artistic interpretation is made available to us. While images appear seemingly obvious, it is the interpretation that I always look for in a photographer's work, as this is their version of the story, or the message they are asking you to be open to see.
The process of creating a photographic montage, I believe, further extends that liberty. We have the benefit of experiencing close-up, a detailed working process that starts with a series of skillfully captured images, re-imagined, re-created, and edited by the photographer. Ultimately they present us with their vision of another version of a continuous whole.
This new composite enables us a visit inside the photographer's mind, and not just through the lens of their camera. Welcome to the interpretations of Elena Hiatt Houlihan and Kim Curinga.
