Event Details
KMR Arts presents an art show, “Convergence,” featuring the photographic works by Peter C. Jones and Barbara Vaughn, on view Saturday, October 26 through Sunday, November 10 at The Judy Black Memorial Park and Gardens. An opening reception will be held at the park on Saturday, November 2 from 3 to 6 pm.
Barbara Vaughn’s ongoing Waterscapes series depicts images of vibrant abstraction. These unmanipulated photographs engage the viewer’s imagination in unexpected ways. Vaughn photographs in ports and marinas around the world, resulting in dynamic and kinetic compositions that straddle realism and abstraction simultaneously. These compositions are familiar yet unrecognizable and mysterious.
Barbara Vaughn is a fine-art photographer based in New York City and Paros, Greece, and Woodbury, Ct. She is represented by several galleries in the US and her artwork is in numerous noteworthy private collections. Since 2013, her signature waterscapes and other photographic series have been the subject of more than 25 shows in the U.S. and internationally. Vaughn graduated from Princeton University and attended the International Center of Photography in NYC, among other arts education programs.
Confluence is a series of photographs created by Peter C. Jones. Water is a source of calm, cleansing energy. This affect is both spiritual and physical as the sounds, the smell and the image of the ocean convey a sense of peace and balance. In Confluence, Jones explores the transcendence of the sea through these photographs. As a counterpart to the constant transformation and movement of water, these photographs were made in the same location, from the same window, of the same ocean. These photographs beautifully illustrate the notion that the only constant is change.
Peter C. Jones graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design, where he spent his final year studying with the legendary Harry Callahan. Jones also served on the Board of Fellows of the Center for Creative Photography in Tucson, Arizona. Since 1984, Jones has served as the President of the Josef and Yaye Breitenbach Foundation, where he has organized 29 Josef Breitenbach one person exhibitions and 11 books.
