Photo Op Op Op

The Hopkins House Gallery of Contemporary Art’s “Photo Op Op Op” presented their first all photography show with a collection of fine examples of how many ways photography can be utilized and interpreted from pin-hole camera to digital layering.  The old stone house on the Cooper River consistently presents outstanding shows, this time taking the “op”portunity to “op”timize the”op”tical observation of reality as mediated through photographic technology.  Melissa Panter created cyanotypes on wood by mixing emulsion with gesso, Ben Panter uses overlapping exposures to create unreal landscapes only visible if you swivel your head plus other creative takes on image-making by photographers Thomas Camp, Annette Defe, Ken Hohning, Christy Higgins, Emily Lash, Jeremy Niedt, Clarence j. Guienze and Sharon Harris.
