Dreams, Bright and Dark
|
|
accompanying the exhibition held at StudioSwan June 9 July 14, 2007
|
|
|
Dreams, Bright and Dark, curated by Jerry Cullum, features artwork by
seven emerging young talents: photographers
Jody Fausett (Whitespace, Atlanta), Amanda Palmer, Emily Karcher, and painters Heather Hartmann, Meta
Gary, Shana
Robbins, and Sonya Jilani. Diverse in subject matter and treatment, yet unified by their dream-like
quality, the images in
Dreams form a narrative, sometimes hopeful and romantic, and at other times more brooding
and disturbed. In his
poetic essay accompanying the show Cullum ruminates: The artists in this exhibition are dreamers
of personal dreams,
not tellers or creators of collective stories, and yet their hopes and wishes are in a code that speaks
to us even as it
remains most deeply their own.
[T]he viewer is invited to engage in the dreams of day as an individual
action: to
dream, not the myth or story, but the dream itself onward.
