bridge-to-nowhere_Burnstine.jpg
Susan Burnstine, "Bridge to Nowhere"

Newspace presents Susan Burnstine's Within Shadows. In this series, the artist "explores the fleeting moments between dreaming and waking - the blurred seconds in which imagination and reality collide... The images are created entirely in-camera, rather than with post-processing manipulations. To achieve her unique look, Burnstine created twenty-one hand-made film cameras out of plastic, vintage camera parts, and random household objects, with single element lenses are molded out of plastic and rubber."

Opening reception • 6-9pm • March 5
Artist lecture • 12pm • March 6
Newspace Center for Photography • 1632 SE 10th • 503.936.1935


hirose-nationale.jpg
Midori Hirose

For their first exhibition in their new space, Nationale presents Midori Hirose's L Sub to the Polynomial, an installation of new works on paper. "In analyzing and trying to reduce elements of her studio vocabulary to bare visual elements, Hirose took two distinct directions. For Series 1, Hirose thought about jokes and extracted the idea of happiness by reducing it to a moment of laughter...In Series 2, Hirose's abstract objects play between figure and ground, paying attention to the space and form with precision, while melding quilt-like geometric patterns with hazed gradients of color."

Opening reception • 6-9pm • March 5
Nationale • 811 E Burnside Suite 122 (in the back) • nationale.portland@gmail.com
