Street photographs accepted into group show at the Diane Farris Gallery

I was thrilled yesterday to receive my acceptance letter from the Diane Farris Gallery. I’ve had three photographs chosen to be included in their group show entitled, Twitter / Art + Social Media.

Diane Farris Gallery is pleased to present Twitter/Art+Social Media, a juried exhibition of work by artists using social media for inspiration, production and presentation of their work. The exhibition concept evolved from an original idea by Mia Johnson who has a PhD on the emergence of the Internet as a vehicle for artists and has been responsible for the gallery’s website since 2004… Through Twitter/Art+Social Media, the gallery examines how social media is affecting the practice of artists who use it to share feedback and promote their artwork, organize shows and produce art collaboratively.

The gallery, renowned for their collection of contemporary artists, is in the South Granville area at 1590 West 7th Avenue. The show runs from April 1st to May 1st; I will be sure to update the blog when I have my prints mounted and when they finally go up.

Below are the three images I submitted, with the theme being the outliers that make up a large part of our shared Vancouver culture. All of the images were made while on photo walks organized over Flickr and other blogs. The finals will be 12 x 18″ Lightjet C-Prints, mounted on aluminum DiBond from The Lab Vancouver.

A Sunlit afternoon in Yaletown, Vancouver

The sun was out nearly all day today. I managed to get outside for an hour or so for these street shots. It doesn’t yet feel that crowded in downtown Vancouver, at least not much more so than a sunny long weekend.
