Opening Reception - Revived with Light: An Exploration of Expired Photographic Media


Bath House Cultural Center

Reception with the Artists: Saturday, July 7, 2018 (7-9 PM).  With live music by Johnny Sequenzia.

Expired photographic materials (film, paper, instant camera sheets) are excellent media for the curious artist who enjoys experimenting with unorthodox processes that can potentially capture truly unique photographs.  The Revived with Light exhibition at the Bath House Cultural Center examines the strong appeal of degraded film and paper that are past their intended use-by date.  Although expired photographic materials do not guarantee reliable results, artists explore their use because they can yield stunning surreal images not achievable with other methods.  What to some photographers would seem like a deterrent (haze streaks, color shifts, larger grain, necessary exposure modifications) appears attractive and intriguing to the artists participating in this exhibition who see those characteristics not as deficiencies or constraints, but rather as an incomparable vehicle of personal expression.
