Mixed Colony of Beauty: Photographic Exhibition
Connie Byrne Hyland, the CBH Design Team and acclaimed photographer Agata Stoinska, bring you a collaborative photographic collection portraying the ever-changing nature of our surroundings.
The three collections include:
“THE COLONY”; in reaction to the economic recession, this collection was inspired by the rugged beauty and intensity of the natural environment.
“THE BEAUTY AND WISDOM OF AGE” examines the contrast between our ancient mythic past and our modern materialistic present.
“MIXED AND MUMBLED” explores the integral role of immigrants within our local community. It offers a reflection on the participation of all immigrants in our society through work, education, and family.
The photographic collections will be accompanied by short films by film maker Marc-Ivan O’Gorman, and an array of eclectic sounds from music facilitator Eddie Sheehan.
This work was accomplished through the vision and dedication of all participants in “PURE THINKING” community project and demonstrate what can be acheived when a group collaborate together with a positive common goal.
“PURE THINKING” is a community group that has been established to allow the integration of different cultural groups to come together to develop projects,which will include music,photography,film,and art.
