"Camera / Chimera" is an upcoming show that I curated. The show is a
series of photographs, each by a different artist. The artists are
asked to replicate the previous artist's photograph. The result is a
visual game of "Telephone" in which the image slowly (and sometimes
abruptly) mutates through the process of recreation.
Artists included in the show: Becca Albee, Holly Andres, Patterson
Beckwith, Chase Browder, xtine burrough, Cassandra C. Jones, Adrianne
