Opening December 2 and continuing through January 7, 2012, in the main gallery of the The Center for Fine Art Photography in Fort Collins, Colorado, is the exhibition “Dreams.” The work is meant to explore the notion that “our conscious and subconscious mind produces dreams that consist of images, ideas, sensations and emotions. Often they represent our aspirations, goals, and fears both realistic and fantastic.” The exhibition was juried by Aline Smithson the one-time gallery editor for Light Leaks magazine, who writes and edits the blog, Lenscratch, and has curated exhibitions for a number of galleries and online magazines. The Center’s executive director is Hamidah Glasgow.
Featured here, “End of the Road, Florida Keys, 2010” by Barry Steven Greff, is one of the images being exhibited out of some 2,500 submitted for consideration. More of his work can be viewed on his Web site.
I really like this picture, I love the composition and the way the bridge leads us into the picture yet there remains a mystery – we dont know where it leads to and neither do we know from where it has come. How did it get broken? how far from land is it broken? It leaves a sense of isolation.
