Chip Freund Photography is proud to have two works selected for the Earth First juried exhibition at the Floyd Center For The Arts. This exhibition aims to explore and celebrate the central theme of Earth stewardship and sustainability. Discover how artists from across the country explore themes of sustainability, connection with nature, upcycling media, coordination and relationships between species, climate dialogue, and more through various media. Earth First will highlight the delicate balance between human existence and the natural world as seen through environmental consciousness.
My accepted works:
Vanishing Ice
A double exposure created by overlaying an image of the Blue Glacier taken in July 1982 with one taken in July 2022. The substantial loss of glacier ice can be seen with careful inspection. As with so many changes resulting from climate change, the impact can only be seen over the span of time.
“i” is for information
At first glance it's a striking image of a beautiful sunset. But once presented with information, you can drawer your own conclusions as to how beautiful it really is. The red sky and crisp edges to the sunbeam were caused by smoke from the burning of a sugar cane field near Lake Okeechobee, FL.
