If Memory Serves: Photography, Recollections and Vision | Honoring Aline Smithson

December 16, 2023

My Fauxliage series is included in an exhibition, sponsored by the Los Angeles Center of Photography, at The Brand Gallery in Glendale, California. The exhibition delves into the photo as an object. Cell phones are the predominant creators of imagery today and their digital files are stored on hard drives and rarely printed. I produced a typologic grid of 250 photos of vintage cell phones, interspeced with actual phones affixed to the wall. The grid surrounds my Fauxliage tower images. I am also exhibiting cyanotypes made from the various styles of found fallen leaves from the cell tower trees.

The exhibition honors one of my mentors — Aline Smithson — and highlights her work and contributions to the current photogrpahy world.

Check out the YouTube video of the entire exhibition.

Our hard drives may fail. Our phones might break. We may forget an image that was once cemented in our minds. Our relationships with images and devices that hold our memories define how we understand our position in the world. If Memory Serves emerges from the moments those devices fail us, our recollections betray us and our pictures refuse to bring back the people they once captured. This exhibition emerges from the intersection of our haunting pasts, possible futures, and our connections to photographic images, technologies and the systems that ask to speak for our photographs.

The projects included here invite the viewers to immerse in transitions and transformations, in discomfort, in the borderlines between vision and sense, knowing and unknowing. At the same time, these works refuse nostalgia in its depoliticized state. These projects are defined by the viewpoint and lived experiences of their creators: female-identified, immigrants, descendants of inherited traumas, caregivers, providers. Photography is key to efforts to claim visibility, capture narratives and elicit conversations about the lives of vulnerable bodies and communities. The works on view are opening points, a threshold, for a conversation that should never be silenced, a conversation that is concerned with the conditions of its production – the present and future of photography – as it is concerned with its political, social and personal content.

The exhibition begins with and honors Aline Smithson, a mentor, photographer and educator, whose work with artists is redefining photographic practice. If Memory Serves celebrates her immense contribution to photography and further comments upon the reach of her stewardship and pedagogy. The participating artists have all been studying with and from her. Seen together, their works offer profound insight into our co-existence with photography, suggesting meeting points between personal experiences and broader societal issues and conflicts – from privacy to grief, from representation to immigration.

Memory is a Verb at Dallas Center for Photography

April 15, 2023

Memory is a Verb: Exploring Time and Transience brings together eleven women photographic artists exploring the liminal space between time and transience. Represented in this body of work are the universal concepts of loss, mortality, and legacy, and the exploration of what inspires us to seek solace, and reexamine our histories; subsequently unearthing discoveries about ourselves, our relationships, and our place in the universe.

We are thrilled to bring this work to the Dallas Center for Photography in Texas and to have Emily Edwards (Dallas Contemporary) curate the exhibition. See more installation photographs.

Curatorial Statement by Emily Edwards

Memory as Medium

In the ever-expanding field of contemporary art, memory art has emerged as a subgenre that engulfs subject matter such as autobiography, revisionist and/or collective memory, the archive, nostalgia, repetition, history, temporality, and amnesia. It also considers the impact of museums and galleries in the construction and presentation of history and knowledge.

The medium of photography plays a vital role in this movement. Once understood as capturing and preserving singular moments in time, it is now recognized as having a multifaceted and often slippery relationship to linear and factual documentation. Contemporary artists, such as Hiroshi Sugimoto, Sophie Calle, and Carrie Mae Weems, have embraced this multiplicity by exploring how photography can construct history, memory, and the perception of time.

The artist collective Memory is a Verb situates itself within this larger contemporary movement with its exhibition Memory is a Verb: Exploring Time and Transience. The eleven female artists utilize photography to document the richness and complexity of their relationship to time and memory. The origins of memory art are rooted in processing trauma and difficult historical pasts. These photographers do this through collectively creating work in response to both the COVID-19 pandemic and the quotidian stresses of everyday living, including parenting, aging, and grieving, and seeking meaning through it all. Through their work, these eleven artists remind us all that to remember is to be human. Collectively they celebrate our shared humanity, profoundly influencing how we see ourselves and others. After these past few years of uncertainty and grief, this exhibition maps a way forward toward communal understanding and healing.

Critical Mass 2022 Top 50 Exhibition in Seattle

March 30, 2023

The image Chuck's Corvette from my Memory Building series was selected for the Imminent Existence exhibition at Photographic Center Northwest in Seattle, WA. Imminent Existence is this year's exhibition of Photolucida's Critical Mass Top 50 artists. The curator, Arnika Dawkins (Arnika Dawkins Gallery, Atlanta), selected one piece from each of the Top 50 artist’s portfolios to be included in this gallery exhibition.

Curatorial Statementfrom Arnika Dawkins

We’re in a mess right now.

Things that we relied on in the past are being turned upside down. The right to live your life as you wish is challenged left and right. Since the beginning of time, artists have responded to their life and times. They are the ones that are bold and creative enough to make a public statement about their views, whether it is for the sake of beauty, stress, strife, injustice, understanding or any other myriad of things. It is their commentary that we are able to enjoy and ponder.

The artists chosen in this exhibition dare venture to express themselves. I am interested in tying together a cohesive perspective found in this collection of images and continuing the visual dialogue that can be explored if we all take a moment to stop and look.

Memory is a Verb at Oceanside Museum of Art

January 28, 2023

Memory is a Verb: Exploring Time and Transience brings together eleven women photographic artists exploring the liminal space between time and transience. Represented in this body of work are the universal concepts of loss, mortality, and legacy, and the exploration of what inspires us to seek solace, and reexamine our histories; subsequently unearthing discoveries about ourselves, our relationships, and our place in the universe.

We are thrilled to bring our inaguaral exhibition of this work to the Oceanside Museum of Art in California and to have Marisa Caichiolo (Building Bridges Art Exchange, Santa Monica, CA) curate the exhibition. See more installation photographs.

Curatorial Statement by Marisa Caichiolo

Memory is a Verb: Exploring Time and Transience is a new group exhibition to be showcased at the Oceanside Museum of Art reflecting on memory, nostalgia, time, and human identity through the lens of eleven female photographers.

The exhibition is deeply rooted in the profound disruption caused by the pandemic –a period that forced artists from different backgrounds and regions across the country to search within themselves as they embarked on a humbling human journey beautifully captured in photography, video, and interactive installations.

The resulting exhibition will allow visitors to engage in the creative process not only through sight but through sound as well.

Ultimately, the project’s goal is to reflect on how memories are formed, whether they exist as fixed reflections of reality or are subject to transformation over time. The featured artworks suggest that even concepts as universal as memory may change, shift, and re-define themselves as time goes by, and this often happens in provoking, powerful, and unimaginable ways.

Unsurprisingly, the past has its own unique way of infiltrating the present moment and forces all of us to re-examine the nature of our memories. Each art piece featured in this exhibition embarks on its own quest to recall the past–be it through an exploration of gender, discrimination, identity, diversity, patriarchy, violence, love, loss, death, family, or environmental issues– in order to deliver a timeline of events that viewers can reflect on.

But the idea that memory exists in the present moment is something that can also be applied to all the artworks presented. As a cohesive collection of works, the exhibition grounds memory as a vital concept in our fast-moving world.

Memory Locks at Oceanside Museum of Art

January 28, 2023

Oceanside Museum of Art invites visitors to unlock the past with their new exhibition, Memory is a Verb: Exploring Time and Transience.

We invite you to explore time and memory with us.

Think about how your memories shift or change as time moves away from the present in our now open exhibition, Memory is a Verb: Exploring Time and Transience; where 11 female photographers explore the redefining effects and powers of time.

Then go and literally explore memory as a verb. Pick up a “memory lock” at the Museum Store and leave it at the “Love the O” sculpture. How will this action redefine itself in your memory?
