What the heck is this week's podcast about?

Episode 265

I hope that you and your family are safe during the COVID-19 outbreak. As we all have been forced to make changes to our daily routines, it got me thinking about time. Time is one of those things at the foundation of photography, and I believe, defines a unique aspect of photography as a medium and form of communication. I also have begun to really realize the awareness impact of having less time everyday can have on my approach to my work. As photographers, we are bound by our sense of time and relationship to time in our work. We can extend time, compress time, slice time or shift time. In each image is some how our relationship to time.

In this week’s podcast, time takes a center stage and I talk about how our approach to time, loss, memory, and abstractions alters our thinking and approach to making photographs.

In conversation with Jenny Hansen Das

n this episode, I’m joined by Seattle-based fine art photographer Jenny Hansen Das for a conversation about exceptions in photography and working with galleries. Jenny’s work blends analog and digital processes, with a focus on everyday moments presented in unexpected ways. She experiments with alternative techniques like cyanotypes and image transfers, creating handcrafted, one-of-a-kind pieces. She’s also the founder of The Seattle Light Room, a community darkroom and gallery in Seattle’s Seward Park neighborhood. Explore her portfolio at jennyhansendas.com, find her community darkroom at theseattlelightroom.com, and follow her on Instagram at @jennyhansendas and @theseattlelightroom.
