“Will We Listen?” by Wendy Denton

Exhibit: October 6 to October 30, 2022
Art Hop Reception: October 6, 2022 – 5PM to 8PM

Called Thousand-Year-Old Words of Wisdom, this is a series
based on the works of medieval women mystics Hildegard of Bingen and others and is comprised of 15 images on themes
such as Justice, God as Mother, the Black Madonna, Code Red
for Humanity, and the Plague.

Hildegard of Bingen was born almost 1000 years ago. What
Hildegard knew then, our best thinkers are calling on us to
know now. Core to Hildegard’s teaching is the rightness of
justice. “With Injustice,” she says, “your soul is dry, totally
without tender goodness.”
“Prophets like Hildegard return from time to time to assist us,”
says spiritual teacher Matthew Fox. “She is a Bodhisattva in
our midst. Listen to her as she speaks your name.”
Will We Listen?

Wendy will do a presentation about the show Friday, October 21st at 7:00 PM.

 After being a photographer for over fifty years, the last couple of years I have become interested in the Botanical World. Up until now I had spent very little time taking pictures of flowers. Not that I didn’t enjoy flowers, but I had other interests, never really taking time to explore this fascinating area of photography.

The first series was by accident and the fact that all my wife’s irises were in blossom. A great subject to start the process. After photographing irises for a week or so, until their flowery show dwindled, I started looking around the yard for more willing subjects. And there were plenty! It was at this time the beauty of “weeds” took root.

After my first few encounters with the wonderful world of weeds, I started to take a closer look. To my surprise, the beauty of weeds, in all their glory, began twinkling before the camera’s lens.

“The Travels of WoeBear” is a special section of this exhibit. WoeBear is a loving, magical, odd little Dog who wandered about during the last plague digging up secrets of the Dog Universe. Some (but not all) of WoeBear’s adventures and encounters are shown here.

“Stuff from Old Boxes,” as the name implies, are pictures from the past, using film, chemicals and what was known as silver gelatin paper. Numerous techniques and processes were used, including a camera that, outwardly, wasn’t doing much more than making a clicking sound.

Thank you for taking time to visit; not just my exhibit, but to enjoy all the wonderful images created by other photographers of Spectrum Art Gallery.
