DAVID HILLIARD – REGARDING OTHERS

Posted on 2017-12-25

For over twenty years David Hilliard has masterfully created photographic narratives, often exploring themes of familial relationships and identity, through a panoramic approach. Much like a stanza in a poem, each panel enhances the viewer’s understanding of Hilliard’s gestalt. Hilliard playfully directs the viewer’s gaze within and throughout each panorama by altering focus, distance, focal planes and time. These elements assist in navigating Hilliard’s narratives, creating moments of tension and release. In Regarding Others, selections from Hilliard’s career aim to bridge themes of youth, beauty, rites of passage, longing and aging that often saturate his evocative compositions. Hilliard references intimate moments often drawn from his personal life while simultaneously and skillfully allowing the work to remain universally understood.

Exhibition runs through to December 30th, 2017
