SUMMARY:Photo Float 2023 with Andy Batt
DESCRIPTION:Photo Float 2023\nwith Andy Batt \nJuly 15-22\, 2023 (8 days & 7 nights) \nGreen River\, Utah\nDeparts from the airfield in Green River\, UT\, on July 15th\nOct 1 – Dec 31:  20% off at $2560 (plus tax & fees) \nInquiries: info@canyonphotofloat.com\nDetails and Booking: canyonphotofloat.com\nNewsletter: photofloat.substack.com \nAndy Batt is leading Photo Float 2023\, a landscape photography workshop floating down the Green River\, Utah. \nMost of us need a creative “reset” once in a while\, and this trip has what you need: a chance to do something new and a way to switch up your regular day-to-day. It’s a landscape photography workshop emphasizing creative growth and inspiration for any kind of photographer. \nOur float happens over eight days (seven nights). We float down the wild and scenic Green River in Utah through Desolation and Gray Canyons. Every night we camp under desert skies\, far from any lights. The river runs through 66 miles of a designated wilderness area. No cars. No buildings\, streets\, or fast food restaurants. You’re surrounded by the beautiful solitude of the desert. We head downstream\, cameras in hand\, witnessing miles and miles of stunning canyons and desert landscapes. \nThe value of this workshop is incredible: small class size\, fantastic food\, camping under the desert skies\, 1:1 guidance from Andy\, professional river guides\, and all on-river logistics are taken care of. \nOur workshop is open to any artist that loves the art of the landscape — Andy will be talking about photography\, but all image makers are welcome. If you’re a painter\, illustrator\, or other visual artist\, he would love to have you along. \nAndy Batt is a commercial photographer with over 20 years of experience working for advertising agencies\, magazines\, and Fortune 500 clients. Over that time\, he’s nurtured a love of landscape photography as a means of visual meditation. \nTESTIMONIALS:\n“This trip\, these classes\, and the people I met inspired me to pick up my camera and do what I should have done a long time ago – shoot for myself. I came back from the trip with a new portfolio\, new friends\, and most importantly\, a new love for the craft.” —Paul Wood\, professional photographer \n“On this trip\, I felt reconnected with the reasons I started photographing in the first place. With Andy’s prompts and image reviews\, I made photographs that feel freer and more unconstrained than any I’ve made in years. Being so remote\, surrounded by great people\, and free of modern responsibilities was soul-cleansing. I’d recommend it to anyone artistically stuck.” –Zac Goodwin\, fine art photographer

SUMMARY:Randall Tosh\, In/dwelling
DESCRIPTION:Randall Tosh\, In/dwelling \nMay 30\, 2023 – July 1\, 2023\nOpening Reception and Demo\, June 15\, 5-7pm \nThe Arts Center\n700 SW Madison Ave.\nCorvallis\, OR 97333\n541-754-1551\nwww.theartscenter.net\nGallery Hours – Tue-Sat 12-5pm \nOregon photographer Randall Tosh will present a free wet-plate demonstration at The Arts Center in Corvallis on Wednesday June 15 in conjunction with his exhibit now on view in TAC’s Corrine Woodman Gallery.\nThe demo will begin at 5pm and precede the reception. RSVP for the demo by emailing Jennie Castle at curator@theartscenter.net by Monday\, June 12\, 2023. \nTosh’s exhibit\, “In/dwelling\,” deals with his fascination with the strangeness of the natural world–in this case shells. The ephemeral qualities of wet-plate photography seem to be well-suited to this subject matter and to this particular moment in history\, when the natural world is under the ever-present threat of destruction.\nWet plate photography is one of the many alternative processes currently being used by photographers working in the analogue tradition. These processes were rediscovered by photographers over the past three decades\, and are prized by those photographers for their beauty and experimental quality. The process of making a wet plate photograph is labor intensive and involves creating\, sensitizing\, exposing\, and developing the plate while the plate is still wet from the sensitizing bath\, about 30 minutes per image. The resulting images have a delicate\, haunting quality\, that evokes the passage of time.

SUMMARY:Rachel Wolf at LightBox Photographic Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Rachel Wolf\, Just a Friendly Reminder That You’re Awesome: A Camera-less Odyssey \nNow – July 6\, 2023 \nLightBox Photographic\n1045 Marine Drive\nAstoria\, OR 97103\n503.468.0238\ninfo@lightbox-photographic.com\nWednesday – Saturday\, 12 – 5:00pm \nLightBox Photographic Gallery opens “Just a Friendly Reminder That You’re Awesome: A Camera-less Odyssey” Rachel Wolf on Saturday\, June 10 with an opening artists reception from 4 — 7 p.m. Rachel is a member of The Guild at LightBox and her passion is in creating photographic art without the use of a camera. \n“I create my work without a camera. I describe my work as liminagraphy – an exploration of the essence of the photographic process that consists of standing at the threshold and turning light into matter. Through the use of various photographic processes and materials\, I transform the ephemeral nature of light into something that can be held\, examined\, and appreciated as a physical artifact.\nWorking in my darkroom\, I am directly exposing photographic materials\, paper and ﬁlm\, to various objects\, light and chemicals. Creating in this way I am able to bypass the limitations of traditional photography and the constraints of a camera. I fully immerse myself in the photographic process\, engaging in a more direct and intimate dialogue with the materials themselves.\nFor me\, the act of turning light into matter is a powerful statement on the relationship between perception and reality. By taking something intangible\, fleeting\, and transforming it into a physical object\, I am inviting viewers to engage with the building blocks of our visual experience in a more tactile\, visceral way. By releasing our expectations of how a photograph is created and the resulting image\, we are invited to consider what a photograph is.\n~ Rachel Wolf \nThe exhibit runs from June 10 through July 6\, 2023. Complete show info is on the LightBox website at http://lightbox-photographic.com/shows/. Contact LightBox at 503-468-0238 or info@lightboxphotographic.com. LightBox is located at 1045 Marine Drive in Astoria\, hours are Wednesday – Saturday\, 12 – 5:00pm. \n

SUMMARY:Jason Langer & Thomas Schestag at Passages Bookshop
DESCRIPTION:Jason Langer & Thomas Schestag at Passages Bookshop \nSunday\, June 11\, 6:30 pm\nDoors open at 6:00 pm; no late entry\nFree admission \nPassages Bookshop\n1801 NW Upshur\, Suite 660\nPortland\, OR 97209\n503-388-7665\nwww.passagesbookshop.com \nPassages Bookshop presents Jason Langer & Thomas Schestag in conversation\, to celebrate the publication of Jason Langer’s recent book of photographs BERLIN \n= == = == = == = == = == = == = == = == = == = == = == = == = == = == = == = ==\nBerlin (Kerber Verlag) is a five-year photographic project on the city of Berlin from the eyes of a Jewish photographer who grew up in Israel and who was deeply affected by his yearly visits to the kibbut’s Holocaust memorial every Yom Hashoah. \nThe images\, shot on black-and-white film\, constitute a walk through the city\, with an eye towards places where Jews hid or were deported during the Second World War. \nPhotographing from a feeling of outsized fear about Germany and German people\, Langer made images of some of the darkest as well as brightest places in the city. The images are a moody mixture of the tragic\, joyous\, and erotic. \nJason Langer is a photographer primarily known for his noirish visions of figures in urban settings. He has exhibited his work with Benrubi Gallery (NYC)\, Galerie Esther Wordehoff (Paris)\, Kopeikin Gallery (Los Angeles)\, Gilman Contemporary (Idaho)\, and SFO Museum (San Francisco)\, among other venues\, and has published four books – Secret City and Possession (both from Nazraeli)\, Twenty Years (Radius)\, and Berlin (Kerber). Langer’s photographs are held in permanent collections\, including the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art\, Yale University Art Gallery\, Zimmerli Art Museum\, and International Photography Hall of Fame and Museum\, and are represented by CLAMP (NYC)\, Galerie Esther Woerdehoff (Paris)\, and Gilman Contemporary (Sun Valley\, ID). Langer lives in Portland. https://www.jasonlanger.com/ \nThomas Schestag\, widely published writer and translator\, teaches literature in the Department of German Studies at Brown University. His special interests include theories of names and naming\, and the intersection of philosophy\, philology\, poetics\, and politics. Recent publications include Namenlose (Matthes & Seitz)\, and translations of Rosmarie Waldrop (Hölderlin-Hybride\, from Urs Engeler) and Francis Ponge (Le soleil / die sönne\, from Matthes & Seitz). \nLanger is a confident photographer whose epic images recall the spirit of modernist auteurs like Brassai\, Steichen\, Kertesz\, and Renger-Patzsch. ‘Berlin’ is his most personal book in that it traces the artist’s Jewish roots\, his time on an Israeli kibbutz\, and what it means for a contemporary American photographer to walk the streets where some of the greatest horrors of the 20th c. were planned and executed. Langer’s collection of muscular images of architecture and alleyways where the ghosts of history can be felt are punctuated by moments of quiet sensuality. — Mark Alice Durant\, Saint Lucy Books \n

SUMMARY:Philip Bowser in the Blue Sky Gallery Community Drawers
DESCRIPTION:Philip Bowser in the Blue Sky Gallery drawers \nJune 1 through July 31\, 2023 \nBlue Sky Gallery\n122 NW 8th Avenue\nPortland\, Oregon 97209 USA\n503-225-0210\nWednesday – Saturday 12 – 5 pm\nbluesky@blueskygallery.org\nhttp://www.blueskygallery.org/ \nPortland artist\, Philip Bowser\, is pleased to announce a new series entitled “Behind The Assumed View\,” will be available for inspection at the Portland Photographers’ Forum Community Drawer from June 1 through July 31\, 2023. Visitors may remove from the drawer any or all of the 17×22” composite photographs for closer examination. \nThe premise of the series is that people have learned standards and rules for how things should be. These assumptions can be distortions of reality that help to maintain an unhealthy status quo. Photography and other media\, portraying reality as it is assumed to be\, at times could be complicit in maintaining the illusion of normalcy. \nThese prints are the results of my efforts to tear away the thin veneer of expectations to reveal a different reality\, one desperately in need of improvement in many areas. Each one starts with a simple photograph\, which is then heavily modified in post-processing to give the impression that a lot of work still needs to be done to create a fair and equitable society. The prints are difficult to read\, requiring a closer look at the grit and distortions that are invisible when the assumed view is intact and unchallenged.

SUMMARY:Rich Bergeman\, The Land Remembers
DESCRIPTION:Rich Bergeman\, The Land Remembers \nMay 2 – Sept. 15\, 2023\nLecture and Book Signing\, 1pm\, May 20\, 2023 \nFort Vancouver National Historic Site\n1501 E Evergreen Blvd.\nVancouver\, WA 98661\nhttps://www.nps.gov/fova/index.htm\n360 907-1075\nOpen Tues-Sat 10am-3:45pm \nSelections from Rich Bergeman’s “The Land Remembers: Photographs Inspired by the Rogue River Wars of Southern Oregon” are on display at the Fort Vancouver Visitor Center now through Sept. 15. The Corvallis photographer will give an illustrated lecture on Saturday\, May 20\, at 1 p.m. \nThe exhibit features a dozen black-and-white infrared photographs from Bergeman’s two-year project exploring the landscapes where the Rogue River Indian Wars took place in the 1850s. “My goal was to bring this largely forgotten war back into our collective consciousness by reflecting on the beauty of the landscapes that played host to those tragic events\,” Bergeman said.\nOne of the least remembered and yet bloodiest of the Oregon Territory’s Indian wars\, the conflicts ranged over a broad swath of rugged territory between the Rogue River Country and the South Coast between 1851 and 1856. \nThe war traces its beginning to the passage of the Oregon Donation Land Claim Act in 1850 and the nearly simultaneous discovery of gold in the region. As settlers and miners streamed in\, the various small tribes who lived there suddenly found their hunter-gatherer way of life being destroyed. Skirmishes\, murders and atrocities on both sides inevitably followed\, until the conflict erupted into all-out war involving the U.S. Army. It ended with the forced removal of the decimated tribes to newly created coastal reservations at Siletz and Grand Ronde in 1856 in what descendants today memorialize as Oregon’s “Trail of Tears.” \nAn Oregonian since 1976\, Bergeman is a retired instructor of journalism and photography at Linn-Benton Community College in Albany. The 74-year-old photographer has been exhibiting his work throughout the Northwest since the 1980s. Over the past two decades he has focused primarily on portraying forgotten Northwest histories through photographs of what’s been left behind. His portfolios can be seen at richbergeman.zenfolio.com\, and in book form at blurb.com \n  \n

I found you on January 20th and took you to the memorial site of Nyanza\, Kicukiro. I was exhausted after that; I expected to be relieved and feel grateful for that accomplishment but instead became so sick. My muscles were not working\, I spent weeks in bed recalling every detail of before your trip to Ruhango and the day of our separation. Our wish was for you to survive even if we die.

SUMMARY:Deb Stoner in the Pushdot Studio Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Deb Stoner\, A Closer Look \nApril 7th\, 2023 – May 26th\, 2023\nOpening Reception: April 7th\, 2023 6-8pm \nPUSHDOT STUDIO\n2505 SE 11th Avenue\, Suite 104\nin the Ford Building\, enter on Division Street\nPortland\, OR 97202\n503.224.5925\nwww.pushdotstudio.com\nGallery Hours: Mon-Fri. 8:30am to 5:00pm\, free admission \nDeb Stoner is an American artist\, born in 1957. Deb received a BS in Geology from University of California at Davis\, and her MFA from San Diego State University. She taught jewelry and metalsmithing classes at the Oregon College of Art and Craft in Portland\, Oregon for over twenty years\, and is known for creating innovative approaches to making handmade eyewear through material and design research. She taught over fifty workshops on these techniques at craft-based schools and universities\, and lectured widely at symposia and conferences. Deb served on the Board of Trustees at the Haystack School from 2001-2010. \nDeb’s work in photography followed similar craft informed investigations that continue to yield innovative work. From early work in black and white in the 1970’s through experimental work in graduate school and while teaching at OCAC\, Deb’s radar always included a lookout for darkroom access. While learning about wet plate techniques\, a chance demo on the use of a flatbed scanner to create digital negatives caught her imagination\, leading to an obsession with making complex still life images of the flora and tiny fauna of the gardens in her neighborhood. A recent commission by the Oregon State Treasury Resiliency Building brought her curiosity to investigate the endangered Fender’s Blue Butterfly with its nectar and food sources. And although her commission to wrap the exterior of a building\, the Palos Verdes Art Center\, resulted in the very largest scale work she’s ever done\, most people’s introduction to Deb’s work is on their way through the Portland International Airport whose permanent collection includes twelve of her works from “A Year in the Willamette Valley”.

His work includes portraiture\, architectural photography and outdoor and landscape work. He works extensively with people with disabilities\, meeting their needs to craft great photographs. He taught and lectured at Lane Community College for over 4 years and leads workshops and classes. \n“Photographers mark time with each and every still frame that they make. In the past twenty years I’ve watched my career evolve and my approach to what I do change. With more experience comes more planning\, more nuanced and purposeful lighting\, and finally refining the narrative of the photograph to tell a deeper story… \nBeing a successful photographer is more than just delivering photographs. Developing relationships\, building trust with clients and managing the business has been instrumental to having had a long career. \nAlmost half of the work is landscapes . . . The second half of the work is from a variety of projects. Location\, studio\, people\, raptors\, architectural spaces. These are a few highlights.” \nhttp://www.jonchristophermeyers.com \n

Andy led a group of photographers down the Green River in Utah\, and the work they created is beautiful. Please visit the store to see the work. \nhttps://prophotosupply.com/blogs/gallery/store-gallery-february-2023-andy-batts-canyon-photo-float \n“There is a sense of amazement when the dawn light wakes you up after sleeping under the stars listening to the river. You realize your “job” today is to experience that light\, take some photos\, and then head downstream surrounded by jaw-dropping scenery. And you get to do that for 8 more days. I was lucky to lead a group of photographers down the Green River in July 2022. I was lucky to take the trip myself\, but even more so because I could share an incredible place with others. I got to see the landscape through their eyes and experiences. I was rewarded with a week of comradery\, talking shop\, deep diving on “what is a landscape photograph?” and seeing how changed everyone was by the end of the trip. At the end of it\, we have our memories and our photographs. In a way\, these photographs are memories put on display. I am incredibly proud of this work — everyone made creative\, moving\, and inspirational images. I hope that you enjoy the experience of seeing them. -andy batt\, Trip Leader\, Educator\, Photographer\, Rafter \n  \n

DESCRIPTION:Laura Kurtenbach\, “Femme Noir” \nFebruary 11th\, 2023 – March 8th\, 2023\nArtist Reception: Saturday\, February 11 from 4- 7pm \nLightBox Photographic\n1045 Marine Drive\nAstoria\, OR 97103\n503.468.0238\ninfo@lightbox-photographic.com \n“Femme Noir” is a reaction to how our culture represents women\, both in my own experiences and especially in the media. As an artist I have always been interested in how women have been\, and still are\, presented in our society; often as victims\, something to behold\, to covet\, to control\, to be seen\, not heard\, nothing less or more than beautiful objects. This work cannibalizes ideas found in popular media/culture and refocuses them to address feminist issues and concerns. The end result is a photograph\, utilizing mixed media- including collage\, sculpture and light as a way to create images which can open the conversation about how women are represented and to help support and empower us all. \n

SUMMARY:Rich Bergeman\, More Than Meets the Eye
DESCRIPTION:Rich Bergeman\, More Than Meets the Eye \nJanuary 27 – March 17\, 2023\nOpening Reception Friday\, January 20\, 4-7pm \nUmpqua Valley Arts Center\n1624 West Harvard Ave.\, Roseburg\, OR 97471\nTuesday – Friday 10am-6pm\nuvarts.com\n541-672-2532 \n  \nAn exhibit of 25 recent works by Corvallis photographer Rich Bergeman explores the transformative effects of infrared light on a variety of Northwest landscapes\, including Oregon’s High Desert\, the Cascades\, the Central Coast\, and the Willamette Valley. \nThe show gets its title\, “More Than Meets the Eye\,” from the fact that the infrared spectrum lies outside the normal human visible light range. Infrared cameras record vegetation and other organic objects as glowing highlights\, and inorganic landscape features\, like water and blue sky\, as deep dark values. \n“Over the past 30 years I’ve been learning how to see and express myself with a variety of different camera types and processes\,” Bergeman said. “Infrared\, which I took up seven years ago\, is my current addiction. It has a hauntingly beautiful quality that can transform otherwise ordinary views of the land\, sea and sky into something magical.” \nA retired instructor of photography and journalism at Linn-Benton Community College in Albany\, OR\, Bergeman has been exhibiting his photography throughout the Northwest since the 1980s. Originally a large-format film photographer and darkroom printer in silver and platinum\, he currently works primarily with digital infrared cameras and archival pigment printers.

SUMMARY:Meet The Guild at LightBox 2023
DESCRIPTION:Meet The Guild at LightBox 2023 \nSaturday\, January 14\, 4 – 7pm \nLightBox Photographic\n1045 Marine Drive\nAstoria\, OR 97103\n503.468.0238\ninfo@lightbox-photographic.com \nWe are happy and proud to announce the Guild at LightBox for 2023.\nRachel Wolf\, Jody Miller\, Julie Moore\, Angel O’Biren\, Jim Fitzgerald\, Michael Puff\, Loren Nelson\, Sam Blair \nThe Guild at LIghtBox is a group of eight Photographic Artists that are embedded in the Upper Floor of LightBox. The Guild exhibits work\, collaborates creatively\, and supports the Mission of LightBox Photographic Gallery. \nOn Saturday\, January 14th from 4 -7pm we invite you to Meet the Guild at LightBox.\nWe welcome them with new work on the walls and fresh ideas for a great year at LightBox Photographic Gallery. We wish to thank the Guild at LightBox for their endless creativity and helping make everything we do possible! \nJody Miller\nI have been a photographer for most of my life. The daughter of two fine artists\,  I grew up studying  painting and drawing. My first camera\, a Box Brownie\, was given  to me at age nine\, and the love affair with photography has never ended. In 1982  my work began in earnest after attending Ansel Adams’ workshop in Carmel\, California\, studying with some of the great fine art photographers of our time. \nFor 45 years I worked in the television industry in Hollywood as a designer and animator\, and my passion for photography melded beautifully with my profession. Now that I’m retired\, I have the freedom to practice my art and travel\, and am now able to live full time in my adopted home town of Astoria\, Oregon. \nI am primarily a landscape photographer; but any and all genres of fine art photography are represented in my work. I am eternally fascinated with the play of light against shadow no matter the subject matter. I especially love shooting at night\, when shadows and color always delight and surprise me. I am now fortunate to be a member of a superb group of photographers\, The Guild at LightBox Photographic Gallery\, since 2021. \nJim Fitzgerald\nMy love affair with the trees and the natural world began at a young age. In my youth\, family trips to Yosemite\, Sequoia and the Oregon Coast helped set me on my artistic path which I follow today. I am a camera builder\, educator\, bookbinder and publisher and most importantly an environmentalist. \nBeing a west coast photographic artist\, I specialize in intimate natural landscapes and the images I create are all produced with my hand built large and ultra large format cameras. Each fine art hand made print is a one-of-a-kind interpretation of the scene I have captured on my large sheet of film. I print my work exclusively in carbon transfer\, a process perfected in 1864\, allowing me to produce unique relief prints of exceptional depth\, tone and archival permanence. \nAt present\, my works are presented as framed prints and in 2018 I began creating and publishing my own fine press collector edition books and portfolios. These are printed entirely in carbon transfer with both images and text bound into the editions\, a first of its kind in book presentation. \nMy prints are displayed without glass because I feel that my work is alive and needs to breathe. Furthermore\, the archival qualities of my printing process means that nothing in the environment will affect the longevity of the print. Displaying the prints without glass allows the viewer to walk into my work and become one with the scene. Walk around these intimate scenes and see the subtle characteristics of a finely crafted carbon print. \nJulie Moore\nJulie Moore has been creating her evocative style of art for just shy of a decade. Though she has no formal training in photography\, Julie has felt captivated by the visual arts throughout her life. She was first inspired to pick up a camera many years ago while visiting Ireland in the company of a shaman\, and she has been photographing the beauty of her world ever since. Perhaps surprisingly\, she creates her captivating art primarily with her iPhone\, visualizing\, creating and processing her images with the camera she carries in her pocket. She also creates some of her images with her Holga\, a medium-format film camera. Julie makes many of her prints using the polymer-photogravure process. Drawn to this alternative method of printmaking\, she also employs other complimentary techniques during the intaglio printing process\, such as chine-collé and à la poupée. About her work\, Julie has said: !My images share the way I see the world\, its soft tenderness and extravagant beauty\, its agonizing loss and exquisite aging.  I see the overlooked aspects of life and nature. There is small and precious beauty in the unseen\, a part of everyday life that can go missing because it is not prominent\, yet has much to teach us.” Julie’s work has been shown in a number of juried exhibitions in various galleries across the country. \nMichael Puff\nMichael Puff is a retired software architect at Stanford University and a former theater set designer. He now concentrates his energy on Fine Art Photography using 19th century printing processes. \nAlways involved in the visual arts\, Michael began by studying painting. As a young adult\, he worked as a scenic painter. During his university years\, while pursuing a degree in Theater Arts and Egyptian Archaeology\, he designed scenery winning several San Francisco Bay Area Theater Critics awards. \nHis favorite subjects for photography encompass the natural world\, the surreal and dancers. “I’m partial to images which are like theater\, innovative\, thought-provoking\, and play with reality and illusion.” The captured movement created by performers forms a foundation for many of my images. \nMichael has actively pursued photography as an art form since 2004. Beginning the spring of 2011\, through workshops and private session\, he has studied platinum/palladium printing with master printer Mark I. Nelson\, creator of the Precision Digital Negatives system. Michael immediately fell in love with the hand made printing process. Additionally\, he has attended workshops led by Greg Gorman\, Elizabeth Opalenik\, Diana Bloomfield\, and Brian Taylor. \nPuff’s work has been exhibited at the Ryan Gallery at Art Intersection\, Gilbert\,AZ; de Young Museum\, San Francisco\, CA; and LightBox Photographic Gallery\, Astoria\, OR. His work is included in the book Digital Negatives with QuadToneRIP published in 2021 by Focal Press. Puff counts Greg Gorman\, Irving Penn\, and Kenro Izu among his greatest artistic influences. \nA current list of exhibits can be found at: http://mpuff.com/about.html \nAngel O’Brien             \nAngel O’Brien is a poet and an experimental alt-process photographic artist based in Portland\, Oregon. Her inspiration comes from the palimpsest that is life and an important part of her creative practice is wandering the streets wherever she happens to be collecting images on film of the things that catch her eye. Angel’s studio is cluttered with boxes and bags of bits and baubles that she collects on these wanderings\, everything from a bent nail or fallen shopping list to a rusted brake pad and a headless barbie doll.  She is constantly pulling into her work the fragments of place and time that simultaneously divulge and obscure. Her creative process is all about recognising how a time or a place intertwines with a person in a way that creates a moment\, and then turning these into a visual memory. \nJust after her 22nd birthday\, Angel was in a terrible car accident that left her in a coma\, and most of her twenties were spent recuperating. This experience of literally being broken and put back together again\, of finding something worthy under the rubble can be seen as a theme in her life as an artist. Because of this\, Angel has always seen potential in what others might discard. To this end\, in 2007 she completed Metro’s Master Recycler program. In 2009\, her now defunct restaurant\, The Ladybug Organic Cafe\, was chosen for the BEST Award by the City of Portland most notably for sending less garbage to the landfill in a year than the average family does in a month\, despite serving 25\,000 customers in that time. \nWorking with her hands has always come naturally to Angel\, and she spent six years renovating old houses after attending architecture school at The Cooper Union in NYC. She has never stopped with house projects and is forever reusing\, giving away and saving things that have more life left in them. \nThis passion for being creative with “waste” extends very much to her art practice. Everything from saving all the development process wastewater to be responsibly discarded by Metro to avoid its polluting our rivers to soaking paper in leftover gum emulsion to create a unique substrate upon which to make other prints. Using historical photographic processes\, such as platinum-palladium\, gum-bichromate and cyanotype printing methods\, Angel creates the surrealist montages for which she is well known. Each of her one of a kind pieces is lovingly made by hand in her basement darkroom. Though she lives in Portland with her daughter\, she has a lifelong case of wanderlust and is often found in other parts of the universe. \nRachel Wolf\nRachel Wolf is a professional photographer who specializes in camera-less photography\, alternative/antique processes\, and creates immersive environments through light-based installations. Growing up in Alaska\, the presence and absence of light has been profound in Rachel’s life and work. The aurora borealis gave her a direct experience of light as both transcendent and embodied. Since then\, light has been Rachel’s muse\, and her work is devoted to exploring and expressing its multivalent qualities in the field of photography and beyond. Rachel loves to inspire others by sharing her passion for light and photography as a professor and speaker. She also believes in the power of art as a collaborative endeavour and its raising of community. She is a founding member of FO(u)RT Collective\, a multi-disciplinary arts collective that creates/curates exhibitions and events. Rachel has exhibited both nationally and internationally including Germany\, Hungary\, New York\, San Francisco\, Los Angeles\, Cincinnati\, Seattle\, and Portland. Her work is held in both public and private collections. Rachel earned her BA from Hampshire College and her MFA from Pacific Northwest College of Art\, and can be found playing in her darkroom in Portland\, OR. \n“While my images are photographs\, the principle method I use to create is without a camera. Camera-less photography consists of the family of grams: photograms\, chemigrams\, and luminograms. As my camera-less process blurs the distinctions between these grams I call my work liminography\, which is an exploration of the essence of the photographic process that consists of standing at the threshold (a liminal space) and turning light into matter. By releasing our expectations of how a photograph is created and what emerges as the image\, we are invited to consider what a photograph is\, must or can be.” \nLoren Nelson    \nIn 1972\, Loren Nelson picked up a Deardorff 4X5 view camera and began to organize the world on a four-by-five-inch piece of frosted glass. Nelson photographed with film and used a traditional darkroom to produce silver gelatin prints for over 40 years. But recently\, he has incorporated a digital workflow\, using 35mm digital cameras and an iPhone to more spontaneously respond to his surroundings\, and printing his images with archival pigment inks on fine-art papers. Portfolios include landscapes\, seascapes\, botanicals\, driftwood details\, and “Under Wraps”\, a series of plastic-wrapped buildings. \nLoren Nelson’s photographs are in numerous public and private collections\, including the Portland Art Museum; the Hallie Ford Museum of Art\, Salem\, OR; and the Florida Museum of Photographic Arts\, Tampa\, FL. He is represented by the Portland Art Museum/Rental Sales Gallery in Portland\, OR\, and LightBox Photographic Gallery in Astoria\, OR\, and has been published in View Camera\, LensWork\, B&W\, Analog Forever\, and Shots Magazines. \n“If you want to learn what someone fears losing\, watch what they photograph.”    ~Anonymous \nThis quote resonates with my approach to photographing\, especially in recent years\, as threats to our environment are becoming more and more apparent. For many years I have been content to make carefully composed photographs that celebrate the beauty of our natural world. But lately\, I feel an urgency to photograph elements of nature that are in observable danger of disappearing. Working with digital cameras has expanded my vision and inspired me to connect more intuitively to my environment. I am currently working with Willamette Partnership providing images for The Oak Accord\, a voluntary conservation agreement with landowners in the Willamette Valley\, and focusing on their commitment to preserving and restoring Oregon oak savannas. I am also contributing photographs for the Oregon Shores Conservation Coalition\, for use in helping to protect and preserve our magnificent coastline for future generations. \nSam Blair \nSam Blair has a B.A. degree in English from the University of Denver\, and a J.D. degree from Lewis and Clark College of Law. He was a civil litigator for 35 years\, with offices in Oregon and Hawaii. When practicing\, he was named one of “Americas Best Lawyers”. He also had a weekly column in Kauai’s newspaper\, The Garden Isle. He has taught as an Adjunct Professor of Law at Willamette University College of Law in Salem\, Or. \nHe is afflicted with wanderlust\, and retired from practicing Law to pursue his passion of travel and fine art photography. As a self taught photographer\, he has explored over 90 countries\, and is the recipient of numerous photography awards. His images have been exhibited in galleries in both the U.S. and Canada. His mission is to capture “the essence of things” in other cultures\, beaches\, and the fascinating homo sapien. \nHe is also a haiku poet. His poems have been published in multiple literary anthologies and journals. He teaches haiku poetry on behalf of the Writer’s Guild of Astoria\, in Astoria\, Ore. \nSam is a longtime student of Zen Buddhism\, and trained in the Japanese martial art of Aikido\, where he earned a Black Belt. He lives in a Pine forest fronting Kyle Lake in Warrenton Or.
