Artist’s statement: No Exit #1 and No Exit #2 are pigment ink transfers and mixed media images. My foundation photographs are from Bologna, Italy—notably a city with a vast genre of social and political scribbled messages. The substrates are gel plate acrylic monotypes. I want my work to have a fresco-like quality by combining digital files with gold textured substrates.

One Sunday, while on vacation in the Abaco Islands, I heard music pouring from the windows of a turquoise painted building. ALL ARE WELCOME was stenciled on the stone doorstep. It appeared not by accident that I was drawn into the fellowship of this Haitian church. My photographs are neither formal studio shots, nor are they casual street portraits—although my “studio” was in the shade of a building across from the church. That’s how Church Ladies started. It’s an on-going series.
By making a respectful connection with my subjects—even if a “sitting” is no more than five minutes—I try to capture the essence of the individual. I ask them to make eye contact with the camera, and for a few shots, not to smile. My best photographs reflect an honest interaction between my subjects and me, resulting in a narrative portrait of beauty, dignity, and a sense of faith.

Using Epoxy Resin, Friday, May 4th, 2-4PM
Resin is a two-part compound that hardens to a clear glossy finish. It can be used to create a durable finish over various substrates or even to “lift” an image from special film. This demonstration will focus on its use as a finish for fine art photographs and mixed media collages. Barbara will provide a list of resources.

Amy Holms George: Juror’s Statement: I believe there is an element of magic that unites all this work, along with the unusual capacity to connect with the viewer in deeply profound ways. I was especially fascinated by images that emerged from developed bodies of work, in which the artist is pursuing a cohesive photographic vision. It’s always exciting to discover an artist who understands how to harmonize his/her creative voice, establishing a signature style that can be easily identified yet does not appear formulaic, familiar, or redundant. Also, I encountered a lot of work that surprised me with its clever transcendental quality—taking me somewhere else, a place of the artist’s invention. Much of the beauty of a photograph is in its inherent nature to communicate a “truth.” However, many of the images in this show challenged my sense of what’s real.

Mixed media: acrylic paint, transparency film, digital print
Electronic technologies impact astounding aspects of our lives, transforming the way we communicate and behave. They are fast and prolific. The over abundance of information we are bombarded with daily can be overwhelming and upsetting. Do we exchange and share too much with excessive messaging, posts, tweets? How do we stop the annoying, intrusive and distracting “noise?”
Superimposed images depict a fury of mixed thoughts being processed by the mind. Graphical representations of sound signals illustrate the strength and frequency of information bombarding us incessantly. To deal, we rely on coping mechanisms to help manage internal or internal stress: separate from a situation, perform a calming ritual or even have a melt down.
Feel overburdened? Can’t keep up? Anxious?
STOP. UNPLUG. BE FULLY PRESENT.
Lee Connolly-Weill

This subject matter, Sensory Overload, makes me smile. It represents a chance to abandon all ideas of how my work is supposed to look. I enjoy total artistic freedom to let loose and play with color, line and composition. The dance with serendipity feels magical. When I am loyal to my inner child, the work itself becomes a great adventure.
Mary Doering
Sensory Overload #1
Archival digital print
Mannequins are inanimate objects with an uncanny sense of aliveness. Making them more (or less) human-like leaves us with feelings of ambiguity. As substitutes for human beings, they become icons of art.
With a sense of detachment, mannequins at Serenella, Newbury Street’s “premier luxury boutique,” watch over pedestrian traffic below. An overload of photographic information is superimposed as one image by using multiple exposures and capturing reflected details.

The monoprints with baby dolls are about the fragile treasure of the creative mind seeking acceptance and nurturing from established mentors in art. For me the mentors are esteemed artists whom I have admired and whose classes I enrolled in over the years. They would include Michael Mazur, Tetsuo Ochikubo, George Nama, and Constance Jacobson in Printmaking, and Joan Snyder, Gregory Amenoff, Bernd Haussmann, and Lois Dodd in abstract Painting.

An invitation from Annie Dean, Director of Programs and Exhibitions: For this exhibition, the jury is seeking works that highlight the artists' interpretation of the natural beauty of Cape Cod—the land, sea and skyscapes, as well as the world beneath the sea. Selection of work is based on how prints "speak" to one another visually and thematically to create a viewer experience that encapsulates a sense of beauty.

Red, Right, Returning
Photo transfers, collage, resin
Artist's statement: Chatham’s barrier beaches and inner shorelines constantly change—a dynamic ebb and flow of waves, currents, winds and tide. On April 1, 2017 ocean water surged through a “break” in South Beach creating a navigation channel to Nantucket Sound. Mariners returning from sea, position the red buoy to their right.
Reception: Friday, August 4, 6-8PM
Artist Statement: I do not think of myself as a photographer, printmaker or a painter. Rather— without being identified by a single one—I feel free to move past the confines of traditional media or genres. I draw from and mix together an endless variety of available material. Each digital print begins by choosing images from my extensive collection of scanned original paintings, monoprints, photographs and personal markings. Elements are then layered over one another. Hard edges, line, and color fields combine in surprising ways. Blending modes are used with careful attention to color, form and composition. Transparent multilayers echo fainter versions of shapes and textures. By keeping the process fluid, I enjoy a cross-pollination of the various disciplines. Using my computer as both a tool and a partner, I am free to experiment throughout the process. The resulting combined-media image cannot be made by any other means.

The Invention of Maps

Reception: Friday, August 4, 6-8PM
Artist Statement: Joseph Campbell writes that all myths deal with transformation of the consciousness of one form or another, either by trial or illuminating revelations. My images represent common themes in women's lives. The photographs never ”tell” but hint at universal stories. I purposely leave the viewer with insufficient information, letting the images evoke an emotional response. Each photograph hovers between the fiction of reality and storytelling.
Mary Doering
Because I Can
Archival pigment print
Reception: Friday, August 4, 6-8PM
Artist's statement: Cast from life or not, a mannequin is an idealized human figure. To reflect my sensibilities and understanding of the history of photography, I reprocess film camera and analogue darkroom techniques with an iPhone camera multiple exposure app. Although exposures are random, I can predict specific overlapping results and make only small alterations in the computer darkroom. From different points of view, layers of information superimpose in one print.

Monotypes are paintings on smooth acrylic plates transferred to paper once only. Artists ranging from Edgar Degas, Pablo Picasso, Ross Moffett, and more recently Joan Snyder and Michael Mazur have used the monotype medium to express a more spontaneous and evocative range of drawing, painting and printmaking combinations.
Students will make painterly spontaneous images on acrylic plates using small rubber brayers, brushes, Oil Bars, or stencils, and oil base etching ink. Dampened 100% rag paper placed on top of the inked plate, and passed through the press with gentle pressure, results in a unique impression that is intimately and permanently bonded with the fibers of the paper. Overprinting and contemporary experimental approaches with larger rollers produce magical surprises. The glistening layers of radiant ink create truly unique images with depth, mystery, memory and delight. Demonstrations each day will help to develop individual explorations. Beginner to advanced students are welcome. Clean-up will be with baby oil or Simple Green.
Zavorskas Print Studio is air-conditioned and close to Quanset Pond and Pleasant Bay beaches.
Juror’s Statement (condensed)
In my mind and through my eyes, this exhibition is an expression of life, creativity, and ultimately, of love. It is through the lens of love that we cherish the days past and the memories. Emotions of longing, pain, and regret are available through exploring history. While it is our collective love of our humanity and the creatures that inhabit the planet that creates concern for others and our home. Finally are the moments of beauty that remind us to be present.
It is through these artists that we can see the world in a new way. We, in the photography world, are in an exciting time of growth in the myriad of ways that photographic artists can express themselves. Old meets new with a mash-up of approaches and a host of techniques unavailable just a few years ago. While the art isn’t about technique, the ways that people are able to make the work have expanded exponentially. We are the beneficiaries of this wave of innovation and creativity.
