 What are Photo Environments? They are the places seen through the heart, mind, eyes and soul. They are the images that take you away from yourself--your fears, worries, the mundane, the pragmatic-- and make you feel that there is something bigger and better than yourself that exists in the world around you. These are the thoughts and feelings that photographer, Joan Yarfitz, tries to convey in her Photo Environments. She presents simple images that she has seen in her everyday world. She uses no trick photography; no darkroom manipulations; no in-camera machinations; no computer enhancements. She just presents a vision of the environments in which she has lived and viewed through the camera's lens. The colors of autumnal splendor; the minutiae of images seen in water; the bursting flora; the linear beauty of buildings and cityscapes; the vision of California's rich wine country; the faces of people she has met: all converge to create a uniquely seen world of color, joy and beauty, which the photographer invites you to share with her. The exuberance of the images say.. "Come join me in this moment. In this moment you will find the universal experience of Photo Environments."  |
