Howard Lewis
Limited Edition Black and White Photograph - " Howling Sky "

2020

About the Item

Limited edition black and white photograph. This image is "Howling Sky" from the Aerials series. I’ve long been fascinated by weather and most recently climate change science. My deepening knowledge of climate change has strongly influenced the final outcome of my Aerials series images of clouds. The photographs explore the unique emotional ballet of the times we live in; conflicting, dramatic, beautiful, stark, passionate, and rapid change – it’s all there. I wait, looking up, searching for interesting shapes of clouds to appear, the relationships between the cloud shapes to change, the sky between the clouds to widen or narrow, the light to catch the fluffy edges and then visualize how I will translate all the components to black and white tones. I’m interested in the most dramatic and unyielding cloud compositions that reflect a story of change and sometimes dark conflict. Many of these were photographed during the most challenging times of political and health safety we’ve experienced and reflect both an appreciation for what I have as well as apprehension of the future. Photographed on digital media, the Aerials series consists of 40 images. About Howard Lewis: Lewis’ artistic practice often explores science, engineering, technology, and innovation. His intention is to create work that communicates the importance of the search for truth based on science and how the physical world looks and works. The images engage physics, mechanics and creative thinking that often evokes an innovation process. Many photographs are abstract or still life however, he also has a strong affinity for the environment, reflected in his photographs that often include elements of water and sky. Lewis started photographing when he was a teenager and continued through film school.

  • "find us soon" black and white photography moon sky clouds tree silhouette
    By Marie Navarre
    Located in Phoenix, AZ
    Marie Navarre find us soon, 2020 archival digital print on Surface Gampi, Rives BFK 25.5" x 25" unframed 28.75" x 27.75" framed Edition of 5 Marie Navarre’s deep interest in poetry, especially the Japanese form of Haiku, has had a profound influence on her work. She conjures dreamlike images that appear to be from just outside the realm of human observation, like the fragments of a distant memory. She prints her mysterious and timeless images of flocks of birds, grey sky and shimmering endless horizons unmoored from specific times and places, then hand stitches over a background of Gampi paper—a soft, silky Japanese paper that has a satin-like sheen. These enigmatic photographic constructions document the implications of a moment rather than its actuality. The artist understands that her relationship to photography is complex: “I have this trouble of being a photographer but wanting to make the photographs into something else. I still think like a photographer even though in some ways I’m sabotaging the way that photography works. I still begin my artmaking process by making pictures. I don’t know how to begin without the photograph.” At play is the tension of a fixed medium documenting a world in movement. Navarre has a BA, MA and MFA from Arizona State University. Her work is collected nationally and she has received a number of awards including a Capp Street Project Residency Grant in San Francisco for her collaboration with Jim Campbell...
