Distillation

Coming up this Saturday is a unique new photography show called Distillation – The Essence of Waterloo. Put on by Art$Pay and taking place at CIGI, the show will feature a number of local photographers—including myself—that will have their work that has some sort of connection to Waterloo.

What makes this show so different from others is that each photographer’s work has been paired with a musical accompanist. The artists will have their work projected on screen for everyone to see while the music plays. We were able to suggest the type of music or audio we preferred (classical, drumming, spoken word, etc) but we don’t know what the final presentation will be; the first time the attendees see the show will be the first time for the artists as well.

I don’t want to show too much of what images I’ll have during my segment, but, believe it or not, they will be of local architecture. I’ve included a couple with this post to give you a glimpse of what I’ll have up.

There are two shows only, both on Saturday, May 26. The first one is at 1:30, the second at 7:00. Tickets are still available and can be purchased here. Each show will also have a reception afterwards for some social interaction with the artists.

There are eight photographers taking part and each presentation will be anywhere from 5 to 7 minutes. ABBA wasn’t available for my segment so we’ll see what I’ve been paired up with. Hope to see you there!
