Nine Photographic Dreams

Time flies, and our opening is right around the corner. Some of the work is framed and ready, some on its way. We even managed to create 50 images for our additional group exhibit!!

If you have reserved the date yet - this is the time to do so. 

We will all be there on the opening night, proud and excited to show our art. 

For some of us it is the first step we take in the contemporary photography world, for others it might be the second or the third, but for all of us, this is one step closer to our dreams. 

Let's take an additional step forward and share our dreams with the world.

and our one and only Aline Smithson, the best teacher and mentor we could wish for

Aline: "Besides hanging in the Museum of Modern Art, my dream is to simply make the best work I can.--the kind of work that keeps me up at night with excitement and allows for new levels of creativity."

May all our dreams come true, and lets get ready to party !!!

 

Rohina Hoffman on "Mothers and Daughters"

Rohina Hoffman’s photographic series: MOTHERS+DAUGHTERS explores the complicated, nuanced relationship between her subjects at a critical time in their lives as the girls enter their teenage years. It is a collective voice for how mothers and daughters grow together and apart.

"My daughter Maya is the inspiration behind this project.  When she was little she would play in my closet and try on my high heels. I told her that she could borrow a pair for her 6^th grade graduation.  When the graduation came, her feet were two sizes bigger than mine and I knew that the connection through wardrobe was simply a happy memory. That moment had passed.

It was then that I started photographing Maya, her friends, and their mothers, and have continued to explore those relationships over the years, now focusing on the mother/daughter connection in particular."
