ABOUT THE ARTWORK:
Hyeyoung Kim: Nurtured by Nature
One day, in the back of a small temple, I saw a thousand and eight miniatureBodhisattva statues sitting outside, row after row, each in more or less the same color, size, shape, and expression as its neighbor. When I see them as they are today, I realize that something has happened.They have acquired beautiful imperfections on their faces and bodies from nature and time. I also see other emotions emanating from their expressions of peace, serenity, and enlightenment.
Lisa Toby : First Light, Last Light
Already on the edge of believability, it is important to me that my pictures be subject to only the most minimal post-exposure corrections to preserve the visual reality of what was captured during exposure. I shoot during the first and last light of day using a flash, long exposure, and intentional movement of the camera.
Photography, like life, can be full of surprises: some good, others not so much. This unpredictability can make for some extraordinary moments.
Yuki Boyko: Invisible Corners
Corners are unusual creatures. They can disappear in photographs while continuing to exist in the physical world, or show-up in the images while at the same time being ambivalent to their existence in a real life. But regardless of whether they exist in reality or imagination, their existence is filled with traces of time, color, materials, texture, and sometimes with casual objects temporarily caught in their space.
LeRoy Howard:Temple of Siem Reap
In making these images I sought to capture a feeling of serenity that I associate with ruins and sacred places while acknowledging their ongoing reconstruction. I hope to evoke a sense of history in the ruins being rebuilt as well as in the photographic enterprise of documenting them, keeping in mind the ever-present jumble of tourists not far behind.
