SUMMARY:Magnifying Memories...Isolating Ideas
LOCATION:Adah Rose Gallery\n3766 Howard Ave\nKensington Maryland\, Maryland 20895
DESCRIPTION:Adah Rose Gallery is pleased to present the work of three young DC-based photographers in the show “Magnifying Memories...Isolating Ideas.” All three artists unite the power of film in the dark room with ideas that share a common poetry\, sensuality and story-telling narrative.\n\nEsther Hidalgo’s series “Mutations” focuses on abstract depictions of the female body with striking use of light\, color and shadow. The photographic mutations\, at first uneasily deciphered\, create beautiful and intriguing distortions of the body. Through traces of color and suggestion of skin\, the works invite the viewer to contemplate ideas of ambiguity and tension in human relationships.\n\nEsther graduated with a BFA in Fine Art Photography from the Corcoran College of Art and Design in 2004. She has won numerous awards and publications\, including a DC Commission on the Arts & Humanities Young Artist Grant\, an Honorable Mention Award from En Foco’s New Works Photography and Nueva Luz Photographic Journal. She has exhibited in a solo show at the Museum of the American States and many group exhibitions\, including Washington Project for the Arts\, Transformer Gallery and Project Dispatch.\n\nChandi Kelley happened upon a diary belonging to her maternal grandfather that had not been opened since his death for over thirty years. She inherited it from her mother and chose not open or read it. The diary became the inspiration for a body of work\, “More than Words.” She chose to photograph it and began to photograph other books as well\, using objects to tell stories. These stories became possibilities of what the pages might say and using black and white photography\, they allowed her to explore the endless combinations of letters and the mystery of words.\n\nChandi graduated with a BFA in photography from the Corcoran College of Art and Design\, with honors\, in 2004. She is a Co-Founder and Administrator of the artwork subscription service Project Dispatch\, and a member of the DC Arts Center artist collective\, Sparkplug. Her work is in the permanent collection of the U.S. Embassy in Malta and has been exhibited nationally in such places as The Corcoran Gallery of Art\, Honfleur Gallery\, Vivid Solutions\, The Katzen Arts Center at American University\, and NADA Art Fair.\n\nJulie Wolsztynski’s “Rue Longchamp” is a suite of works depicting the beauty of the female figure with sensuality and poetry. Using natural light and the palette of the surrounding space\, each figure is seamlessly integrated into the photograph. The body and the environment combine to create a unified landscape.\n\nJulie is a freelance photographer who was born in 1984 in France. In 2008\, she attended the Iris Center for Photographic Arts in Paris. She contributes to the British agency Millennium Images and moved to Washington DC in 2010. In 2011\, she showed her series “Junk Food” at the ARTISTPHERE in Arlington\, VA in a juried show.\n\n
