Feb 28-Mar 28 Craig Hickman: Someplace Else
"Most of the pictures in “Someplace Else” were made within 70 miles of my house in Eugene Oregon, an area that seems plain to some and exotic to others. I want these pictures to occupy that wonderful space between document and opinion – the realm of selectively gathered facts. In the pictures I have emphasized its saturated quality of color and weather, and I focus on subjects that were created for one purpose but that, due to time, erosion and coincidence take on new visual meaning, often turning out to be more beautiful than when they were new. As I search for pictures, I often come across configurations of objects and space that feel as if they were created for me to photograph. They can be poignant, sad, humorous, sometimes subtly bizarre.
Whatever generalities I make about the pictures in Someplace Else always include exceptions...I took most of them on cloudy days, but some in the sun. Most were made in the past five years, but they can be as old as 25. Overall this is a documentary project, from my personal point of view.
