In partnership with Gregory Allicar Museum
Location: Gregory Allicar Museum of Art, University Center for the Arts
Brenda Biondo uses traditional camera techniques and a formalist aesthetic to explore atmospheric light and color and their role in the construct of landscape. Her images engage the phenomena of sunlight to provide a framework for our meditative experience of being in nature while challenging viewers' perception of color and three-dimensional space. She often uses unconventional contexts to demonstrate how traditional photography can still show us new visions of common subjects. Her current series of work, "A Legacy of Shadows," is concerned with the fracturing of nature and the poignancy of acknowledging beauty in a time of destruction, and is informed by her previous career as a writer specializing in environmental issues. The naturally blue shadows in these images show how the act of looking can sometimes reveal unexpected aspects of light and the natural world.
