San Antonio, Texas – August 12, 2009 G2 Art Sight is pleased to announce the solo exhibition of photography by Rodolfo Choperena, September 11th – October 3, 2009. The exhibition, U N E X P E C T E D, showcases Choperena’s psychedelic and lyrical photographs which opens at the gallery with a public reception during the Fourth Tobin Hill Art Alliance “Art on the Hill” art walk, on Friday – September 11th from 6pm – 10pm. The artist will be in attendance.
In his inaugural exhibition, Rodolfo Choperena bends and manipulates light by utilizing various photography techniques. The resulting images contain striations that move in varying intervals and rhythms, challenging one’s perception of the concept of reality through exploring positive and negative space.
While manipulating the camera’s movement in relation to a specified light source, in addition to changing exposure and aperture settings, the body of work pushes the boundaries of perception to create organic, free forms in a lyrical fashion.
These large scale photographs are inspired by nature and the artists’ immediate surrounding environment. The representative vantage point hosts many personal objects which make each photograph a direct reflection of Choperena’s daily life.
For more information on the exhibition or to arrange an interview with the artist, please contact the artist directly.
