About the Item

This listing is for an unframed print. Born in Buffalo, NY, Atlanta-based photographer Shannon Davis has lived in the South longer than anywhere else. She’s asked locals, “How long do I need to live in the South till I’ll be considered a Southerner?” Their answer has been the same, “NEVER.” Controlled Burn is a conceptual photography series that explores the smoldering act of assimilation and the pursuit of finding home. To illustrate narrative experiences she combines familiar objects into uncommon assemblages. The wit and juxtaposition of the art-directed still lifes convey the mood of navigating a new place while offering a reframing of the region from an "outsider" perspective, inviting the viewer to question what is being represented and how it resonates with their idea of the South. With decades of design and motion-directing experience, Shannon Davis chose photography as her medium for making art. She holds a BFA in Design from Rochester Institute of Technology and shares her creative passions as a professor at the Savannah College of Art and Design.

Trees and Moonlit Sky (Archival Inkjet Print on Watercolor Paper)
By Betsy Weis
Located in Hudson, NY
archival inkjet print on watercolor paper 16 x 16 inches unframed 2018 Photographed in Maine, this color archival pigment print by Betsy Weis captures a grouping of trees at dusk. The serenity of the moon's gentle light against a deep blue evening sky illuminates the dark forest below. This photograph is available unframed. The image measures 16 x 16 inches. Artist statement: Nature provides the perfect model of beauty, according to Plato and Socrates. In the classical period, something was considered beautiful because it existed in nature; art was secondary. In the 18th Century, the German philosopher Johann Joachim Winckelmann argued against the idea that art imitates life, believing that qualities superior to nature are found in art, specifically, ideal beauty, and “brain-born images”. Neoclassical thought represented that art need not serve any end other than its own existence. For me, beauty is an ideal, nature is real, and art comes from the brain. I take pictures in nature, finding shifting, disparate, and beautiful landscapes. I develop my pictures of trees...
