Join us for an artist talk with Jerry Allison and Sarah Shirk in conjunction with Life in Spectrum: Monochrome and Spectrum Photography, a collaborative father–daughter exhibition.
In Life in Spectrum, Allison and Shirk explore the idea that spectrums exist everywhere in life—whether personal, emotional, or visual. Through photography, the exhibition reflects on contrast and connection, using both the full range of color and the quiet presence of monochrome to examine how we experience the world.
During this talk, Jerry and Sarah will share insight into the development of the exhibition, their collaborative process, and the conceptual framework behind the work. Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of how the literal spectrum—ROY G BIV—and its absence can be used to explore broader ideas of identity, perception, and shared experience.
This conversation offers a closer look at the relationship between image-making and meaning, and the ways photography can reflect both division and unity.
