Suspended Landscapes - Artist Talk with Sarah Hood Salomon is an engaging event that you won't want to miss. Join Sarah Hood Salomon at Glen Echo Photoworks in Glen Echo, MD on November 19, 2023 as she shares her unique perspective and inspirations behind her breathtaking photographs. As a talented artist who recently completed her MFA in Photography from Maine Media College, Sarah will delve into her journey that led her to create sculptural photography. She will also discuss the importance of turning mistakes into possibilities and how her work is rooted in a deep love and admiration for trees. The photographs showcased in this talk are particularly significant as they capture landscapes that are soon to be destroyed due to climate change and urbanization. In response to this imminent destruction, Sarah disrupts the actual surface of her photographs by detaching the ink from the paper using sandpaper and mat knives. The harvested ink filings are then suspended in resin to create captivating sculptural forms. Additionally, she pureés, slices, and shreds the photographs to shape them into three-dimensional images. The result is a series of original images that are unrecognizable and cannot be reconstructed, mirroring the altered landscapes we face in our world. Don't miss this opportunity to gain insights into Sarah Hood Salomon's creative process and witness her innovative approach to photography. Admission to this artist talk is free, so mark your calendars for November 19, 2023, and join us at Glen Echo Photoworks in Glen Echo for an unforgettable experience.
