Open now at Moraine Valley Community College:

Tyler Hewitt and Dan Jarvis
Double Exposure


 
Hewitt is Associate Professor, Studio Art: Photography and Design at MVCC. Jarvis was a student at MVCC and is now at Columbia College Chicago.

The exhibition comes in two parts. First is a series of photographic images that were created in partnership. Hewitt shot a roll of color film, and then gave the film to Jarvis who re-loaded it into his camera before taking his own selection of shots. The result is a curious series of “double exposures”.

The exhibition also features work made independently by the two photographers. Hewitt’s series of cyanotypes and Jarvis’s photographs both examine the myths and realities of the suburban experience in their own way. The work questions the optimistic portrayal of an unsustainable, ever-expanding suburban landscape and critiques over-commercialization and the uncomfortable reality that has developed in its wake. 

Opens: Monday, August 16, 2010
Runs until: Thursday, September 16, 2010
Reception: Thursday, August 26, 2010 2-4PM
