Stop by in during the month of January to view photography by local artist, Roxanne Keller.
Of her work, Keller says, "Toronto is a thriving Canadian city that embodies harmony with nature while undergoing construction and development. Viewed on foot and by car, the photographer and vehicle are sometimes captured in these photos, deconstructing the relationship between the object and the viewer. Far from the objective truth of the city, should that exist, this perspective is arguably superficial because it comes from brief visitor and outsider. Yet, the photographer finds beauty and wonder here. At home, she perceives such construction as a sometimes-necessary nuisance. However, beauty can be found in many things.
Capturing themes of construction and decay, organized art and disorganized art, nature, and people with varying familiarity with the city, this photographer found herself and Toronto in her lens and experienced the familiar and unfamiliar in a place she’d never been before."
Keller is a Penn State graduate with a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy. She loves to paint, sculpt, sew/design clothing, and, of course, photograph. An avid traveler, she was moved by her recent experience in the Canadian city of Toronto and wants to share her experiences of the city's people, nature, and development.
Like the library this exhibition is free and open to the public. Interested in purchasing one of Roxanne's photographs? Email her at kellerroxanne@gmail.com.
