Artist's Talk Oct 29 7- 9pm

With painstaking attention to composition, Kathryn Kolb finds images that resonate with the symmetries found within the fractal architecture of nature. Blending abstract design with details of "realness" she creates images that are perhaps more at home in the genre of painting than photography. Her goal is not so much to tell nature's story by illustrating scenes, but to reveal the universal forms that create meanings within scenes, which she discovers at times in the most ordinary places. Her keen observations and sense of enthusiasm come through with her use of design and lighting. The result is a sense of becoming engaged with nature's swirling, complex perfection that pervades her work in a subtle but addicting way. Kathryn's photographs in this show illustrate the geometric symmetry found in nature as well as the evolution of her photographic eye to more complex forms and compositional design patterns over time.
