the show is finally online. please let me know what you think. the party is tonight. come one, come all. also, here's the artist statement schpiel:
"An undercurrent is moving beneath the Dallas art scene, a parallel universe to what the common perception is. There are amazing, undiscovered artists living and working among us—hosting a subtle collaboration. These photographs provide a narrative, yet still participate in the conversation."
Featured artists and conspirators include Nicholas Mathis, Austin Turley, Zachary Broadhurst, John Kim, Luke Harnden, Patrick Rhodes, Nyddia Hannah and Daniel Miller. Due to the limited amount of prints, many amazing artists were left off the shoot-list for this show, such as Grant Guilliams, Nan Martin, Jason Roskey and Joey Seeman.
Sarah Jane's photographic output choice is lith printing, which is an alternative developing process with mid-tones in the pink to russet range. It's a delicate balance of chemicals, paper choice, temperature, selenium toner and exposure that makes up each print. Uncontrollable variables in the printing process cause each photograph to be completely unique. Few photographers utilize this technique due to problems with reproducibility.
Sarah Jane is co-director of IR Gallery in Expo Park and co-founder of Pigeon-Stone Project. She is an active member of numerous artist organizations and participates in solo and group exhibitions throughout the year. Sarah Jane is self-taught in photography, but holds a degree in chemistry from the University of Dallas.
