A note about the work:

My work spans the spectrum between “straight photography” to delicately layered digital compositions. I’m inspired by small moments that quietly transform what’s in front of us—an alleyway remade by a shaft of light, or the grace revealed in the curve of a tree’s branches.

I’m drawn to the unconventional beauty of the everyday and to the wonder that appears when we look a little closer: the tension and harmony of natural and manmade forms, the crisp angles beside organic flow.

Through photography and digital collage, I follow those juxtapositions until they become something more than a scene—something that feels like presence, like transcendence.

I’m always searching for that instant when the quotidian landscape opens into something deeper, and for the chance to bring beauty into the world in a way that inspires reflection.

Oh my goodness this work is beautiful 🌞⚡️🚀

Join us Friday at 10:00 am for guest artist Magali Gauthier!

Magali Gauthier is a San Francisco-based multimedia journalist, artist and photographer whose work focuses on the human impact on the environment and the solutions emerging to address climate change.

She started shooting on film around a decade ago and, in 2018, she taught herself how to lift Polaroid emulsions by watching YouTube tutorials.

Today, she creates emulsion collages made up of anywhere from a dozen to hundreds of Polaroid fragments, and brings her emulsion lift practice into her darkroom and cyanotype work. She works from her home studio and Harvey Milk Photo Center.

Lecture is hosted by artist and educator Janett Perez.
