Had another very enjoyable trip out to Hamilton NY on Friday to see a show of work by photographer Amber Snow Pasiak at The Hamilton Center For The Arts. Low tech photos combined with found object assemblies & a marvelous wall length montage of disposable camera snapshots, all of it exploring the artists' sub-rural New York State working class heritage. Here's some video taken at the opening reception:
And an album of pictures showing the work + installation views. I was encouraged by her use of text and scrappy remnants which most would regard as refuse. No, it's artmaking materials, and here's what you do with it ...
