Odyssey: the Photographs of Linda Connor October 7, 2010

This artist-designed installation of 76 photographs presents more than 30 years of work created by Linda Connor (BFA 1967), who traveled the world in search of sacred spaces. Connor works with a large-format camera to capture the rich detail of her subjects with remarkable clarity. The resulting photographs, printed in the sunlight of her garden in direct contact with her 8 x 10 inch negatives, are toned with gold chloride to achieve warmth and luminosity. The photographs in the exhibition, which were taken in the American Southwest, Egypt, India, Mexico, Nepal, Southeast Asia, Tibet, and Turkey, explore sites steeped in the passage of time and resonant with spirituality.
