The newest solo exhibition from scientist and fine art photographer Boyce Clark examines
identity, social inequality and human resilience. The photos in the exhibition—made using
unconventional photography and print practices like Van Dyke brown, Ware cyanotypes
and Kallitype—are divided into three series. The first, “You Know Me,” depicts unhoused people
in New Orleans and Rome. The second, “Stories Not Told,” is composed of portraits taken
in the Mississippi Delta printed onto pages of The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal.
The third, “Unexpected,” uses experimental techniques and unconventional printing materials
such as vintage road maps and instruction manuals. Besides the thematic purposes of his
alternative printing practices, Boyce also appreciates the intentionality involved, with each print
taking hours to complete in a necessarily unrushed process, and the final products
developing in unique and unpredictable ways. The opening reception for “Unseen Narratives” is
Mar. 7 at 5 p.m., and Boyce’s gallery talk is Mar. 9 at 3 p.m.
