Paired Perspectives
Series of Juxtapositions by Nikki Rotunda
April 3-25, 2009
Opening Reception: Friday, April 3, 2009 7-9:00 P.M.
“A Happenstance of Familiarity”
While visiting Europe, local photographer Nikki Rotunda discovered more than she initially thought she would, and she is sharing that experience in an exhibition at MAC. Through a juxtaposition of photographs taken in West Virginia and photographs taken in Europe, Rotunda presents her unintended realization of finding similarity in the dissimilar and familiarity in the unfamiliar.
She explains that the photographs “are not so much a reflection on these two very different places and two opposite seasons, but on myself as a photographer; what I choose to see. The idea is that in an unfamiliar and in a familiar place we can find visual characteristics that are similar.” In addition to being a commentary on inhabiting a space that feels isolating, comfortable, lonely, and familiar all at the same time, the exhibition stands as a memory of her time abroad. Rotunda says, “I couldn't sum up my time in Sicily in more accurate terms, so I feel that these photos reflect my time spent.”
