Since time immemorial artists have depicted their environs through a myriad of lenses: a realistic approach, recording as objectively as possible what is perceived; to an imaginative approach, using a real scene as a catalyst for the artist’s intuitive expression of place. In Landscapes of Transcendence, SEFA explores the latter, more subjective interpretations of place in a two-part exhibition at our Hudson Gallery, showcasing a variety of styles and techniques.
Part II, entitled Scenes of Ethereality, features photographs that evoke surrealism and fantasy. Experienced together, these renderings depict lush flora and fauna; hyperreal and otherworldly urban narratives; and impossible architecture.
