Reflected in Tranquility, an image by Lisa Erdberg, was selected for inclusion in the Exhibition Gallery of the Filling the Frame Exhibition at PhotoPlace Gallery in Middlebury, Vermont. PhotoPlace invited photographers to celebrate more: layered compositions, intersecting subjects, overlapping lines, patterns, and textures that fill the space with intention – celebrating the creative act of finding beauty, coherence, and story in the midst of visual complexity. Dallas Crow, an Atlanta-based teacher, photographer, and writer, was the juror. Thirty-five images were selected for the in-house Exhibition Gallery; and an additional 40 images were selected for the Online Gallery. The exhibition will run from January 2 through January 31; and the images are already online. Those in the Exhibition Gallery can be seen at https://photoplacegallery.com/online-juried-shows/filling-the-frame/gallery/exhibition-gallery; and those in the Online Gallery can be seen at https://photoplacegallery.com/online-juried-shows/filling-the-frame/gallery/online-gallery. The opening reception will take place on Friday, January 2, from 4 to 7 PM.
Lisa says: Reflected in Tranquility is my all-time favorite image, so I was delighted to have it accepted. Over the course of several summers, beginning in 2013, I photographed historic ranches in Grand Teton National Park. These properties, mostly dude ranches on land acquired by the National Park Service, are resonant of the history of the area, and I was fortunate to meet people who had grown up on these ranches and hear their stories. I loved the whimsical, fun-house reflections in the old glass as well as the rich colors of the weathered wood.
PhotoPlace Gallery, located in the oldest remaining residence in Middlebury, offers monthly juried exhibitions to photographers worldwide, each with a new topic and an internationally recognized juror. All images selected for the Exhibition Gallery will hang in the physical gallery for the duration of the exhibit; and those selected for the Online Gallery will be viewable in the gallery by continuous-loop projection. Images from both galleries remain permanently on the website, are reproduced in the exhibition catalog, and are promoted on social media.
