The opening reception celebrating the exhibition will include light refreshments.

A photographic film negative carries the trace of a specific person who pressed the camera shutter in a certain time and space. Together we trouble the questions of how photographs engage truth, touch, and remembering.

About the Artists

Geren Heurtin: Through photography, I am navigating spaces between abstraction, nonverbal communication, vulnerability, and trauma. What happens when you can’t visualize a difficult memory, but it is deeply felt in the body?

Julia Matejcek: I make photographs with the more-than-human world—the greater community of landscape and animals that includes yet decenters the human. I often make camera-less photographs, which I mediate by touch.
