Armature for Aperture
December 5, 2024 – January 31, 2025
This exhibition focuses on the innovative exploration in photography from two talented artists. Matthew Blum and Adam Atkinson both push the boundaries of process, subject matter, and presences within the practice of photography. Armature for Aperture focuses on the key components of composition, value and the structures that support the space between the lens, the artist, and the subject itself. Each artist’s body of work represents a very specific intent in the broad conversation of capturing emotion, relevance, and relation to the human experience.
