🔹 For Kathleen Massi's series, "Still, Unstill", each photograph inhabits an interval - a space between moments, between seeing and remembering. In that space, stillness reveals itself as something inherently unstill, where a familiar landscape becomes less certain. The recognizable remains present, but only partially, suspended between what the eye knows and what it senses. Kathleen says that the camera becomes a means not simply of recording the landscape, but of experiencing its continual transformation.
🔹 For artist Constance Sloggatt Wolf, trees embody many things including strength and vulnerability, joy and sorrow, human bodies and communities, life and death, and she feels that trees exist in a long, slow dance with one another and with the world around them. The artist states that the best way to know a tree is to draw it repeatedly through observation, touch, and care through changing seasons and over many years. Through this sustained attention, she records the trees' movements, growth, and relationships with the surrounding vegetation and wildlife. She says that the work becomes both observation and connection: a record of that long, slow dance unfolding around us.
