THE MEDIUMIN THIS PRESENTATION EFFECTIVELY GOES BEYOND TRADITIONAL DIRECT REPRESENTATION. CAPTIVATING GRADATIONS IN TEXTURE AND FLUID LIKE DIMENSIONALITY, OF MANY FEATURED IMAGES, REMAIN MEMORABLE LONG AFTER THE VIEWER HAS LEFT THE SHOW. STRAY FRAGMENTS OF UNINTENTIONAL EXPRESSION REVEAL SOMETHING OF THE PROFOUND IN THE COMMONPLACE.
