"The exhibition starts at the bridge ... It is a walk in my dreams," said TerryGold as she gestured toward a physical bridge that ushers visitors into her new photographic exhibition, The Bridge, presented by Solodonna. The expansive show, which features dozens of works, sprawls through several galleries and demonstrates the artist's masterful command of light, shadow and composition. As with her previous installation, the exhibition design is brilliant: walking in total darkness (be sure to follow the environmental instructions at the landing point), lit only by the images themselves and various props and pieces of scenery, we're intentionally disoriented: are we looking at three-dimensional or two-dimensional objects?
"In my spare time I take a few photos often inspired just by a quick idea, a flash," says Terry in the exhibition notecard. "Then I develop them and the trip begins..." The works exhibited suggest a more thoughtful and methodical approach, but either way the results are fabulous. Visitors who lose their bearings (seeing the path in the darkness can be a challenge) may need to temporarily change to another windlight setting; in the central room, a lower level is visible by camming down. The images on display aren't for sale, but patrons who wish to purchase any of them may contact Terry directly, and contributions in support of the gallery are welcome. The Bridge will continue on display until January 6.
