In August of 2018 I received word that I was awarded a grant from the Southeastern Minnesota Arts Council to develop a photography exhibit. The full title of my project is, “Light Chasers: An Intersection of Science and Art.”

I’m grateful to have received some nice publicity in the 507 Magazine. One of my pieces is on the cover, and John Sievers wrote a very nice article that appears inside. Click here to go the article.

You can view the virtual exhibit by clicking here.

In this project I explore the pursuit of light from the perspective of a photographer using photographic film, as well as the pursuit of light from a scientific understanding. Just to keep things interesting, I also explore the use of coffee to develop black and white film. Read more about this on my blog, and keep up on my progress by clicking on the updates below.

This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Southeastern Minnesota Arts Council thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts & cultural heritage fund.
