Experimental Visions: Explorations in Photography
The exhibition, Experimental Visions: Explorations in Photography, curated by Kyle Karrasch, features work by five emerging artists from Truckee Meadows Community College who challenge the conventions of traditional photography. Through experimental processes such as infrared imaging, pinhole photography, composite layering, and camera modification, these artists push the boundaries of image-making, embracing unpredictability as a part of their creative practice.
The exhibition explores photography as a transformative medium—one that goes beyond documentation to question perception, materiality, and memory. Each artist brings a unique conceptual approach, resulting in ethereal and abstract compositions that reflect on time, movement, and instability. Together, their works form a dynamic conversation about the evolving possibilities of photography in the contemporary art landscape.
Participating artists Jaime Ramey, Pedro Gomez, Anthony Jacks, Breeann St. Onge, and Will Barber.
