Ah, I miss Syracuse. (Never thought I would say that.) I miss Light Work, the darkrooms, and the great staff.
While working there for pretty much my whole time in Syracuse, I really loved the opportunity to see the artists that took up residencies there. Love seeing the prints getting freshly printed after the hours laboring over color correction. Love talking to them about their process and seeing how dedicated they were in producing work. Love getting advice and developing relationships and get immediately inspired to make my own work.

Garie Waltzer was an artist in residence at the beginning of the year. Her gorgeous large portfolio of carbon pigmented prints on rag paper were inspiring and breathtaking. She travels the world photographing outdoor urban landscapes from the tops of buildings, creating a scrutinizing view of the world when looked at closely. (Seeing these prints in person are so worth it.)
She currently has a show at Humphrey Atrium Gallery at University Hospitals in Cleveland, Ohio. The exhibit will run June 23 – Sept. 5, 2008.
