JANE HINTON: Northern Light
April 26 - May 17, 2008
On Saturday, April 26th, the Mira Godard Gallery is pleased to open an exhibition of new photographs by Jane Hinton. The artist will be in attendance.
Hinton’s knowledge of classical and contemporary art became the foundation for the experimentation with the camera and the development of her unique multiframe images, and her most recent infrared photographs exhibited for the first time in this current exhibition.
I describe myself these days as sketching with my cameras and infra-ered film produces images that appear painterly, creating a new take on a familiar subject with glowing light and almost surreal quality.
