• STREET LIFE / STILL LIFE • Photographs by Will Kerner Chandni Chowk Bazaar, New Delhi, India/Manor House, San Miguel, Azores Islands Opening Reception • Friday, Feb 7, 5-7PM Exhibit dates • Feb 7 - March 2 Gallery Hours • M-F, 8-4, Sat & Sun 8-2 Artist Talk • Thursday, Feb 27, 5-6PM About the exhibit Across this body of work, my unifying axiom is a search for balance and stillness amidst chaos. In the vibrant setting of a marketplace in New Delhi, I’m looking to balance multiple formal elements at once: color, light, composition, and content. I love the challenge of working in such a chaotic, rapidly changing environment. I must simultaneously pay attention to all that is happening around me when composing a frame, and then wait for the elements to come together. I’m looking for imagery that will pull the viewer into the world where the photograph was made. Questions about the material elements of the picture – people, their clothing, their expressions and gestures — combine with the geometry of inanimate objects to create an engaging, intriguing image in which multiple narratives might unfold. In the Moss hut series, I explored a deteriorated manor house in the Azorean forest. In these reflective photographs, ordered architectural elements succumb to apparently chaotic natural energies. I delight in the mystery of this enigmatic structure covered with moss, lichen, mildew, and wild plant life. The graffiti reveals a human desire to leave a mark on an abandoned place, though it will soon be completely overwritten by the natural world. These two divergent bodies of work represent two aspects of my practice in image making: the contemplative and the active. I relish both as they stretch and energize me in different ways. 📷 @willkerner

Celebrating the one-year anniversary of the Violation Vigil to Stop the Mountain Valley Pipeline! The hard work of frontline community members, allies & advocates continues in the fight against MVP & MVP Southgate! One year later, both projects remain doomed! You can watch "Time To Choose Our Future" featuring highlights of the Violation Vigil at the YouTube link in our bio. On December 11, 2021, more than 300 water protectors gathered at Dogwood Dell Amphitheater in Richmond, Virginia for a Violation Vigil to bring visual and spoken witness to the hundreds of harmful water violations already committed by the Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP). Their conclusion? MVP cannot be allowed by the Virginia State Water Control Board or any other regulatory agency to continue its path of destruction and abuse. The Violation Vigil featured keynote speaker, Rev. Dr. William J. Barber, II of the Poor People’s Campaign and Repairers of the Breach, as well as coalition leaders, powerful musical performances, puppetry and art. The Virginia State Water Control Board may have voted to approve MVP’s water crossing permit the following week, but resistance has only gotten stronger. One year later, MVP remains stalled, segmented and only 56% complete, without valid permits from the US Forest Service, Fish & Wildlife Service, and Army Corps of Engineers. The project cannot cross waterways and is doomed to fail, signaling a rescue party effort from its political champions in Congress and at the White House. In response, a nationwide solidarity effort has elevated the resistance to MVP and its Southgate extension to new heights, fueled by a growing coalition that’s ready for inevitable victory. Hundreds of those Violation Vigil signs have been repurposed with @janmartijnburger & @artivism_virginia with prints exclaiming “We Rise Not Just For You & Me”. Truth! Love & respect for this coalition!  Photos by Will Kerner @willkerner #StopMVP  #NoMVPSouthgate #DoomToThePipelines #WEWILLWIN
