Place title here collects the works of three New York City based artists Adam Cable, Quinn Tivey & Julianne Nash. Each of the artists examines a current state in the medium of photography and challenges the boundaries of its ever evolving definition, re thinking what  is a photo in a digital age and how it could be represented in the physical realm.

Venturing from the accumulated mass of screen viewed photographs, that serve as their inspiration, they create a sculptural image-based installations that are both Three dimensional and surface thick, questioning what photography in today’s digital world is and does to us.

While acknowledging and working off of traditional photography, all three are stretching our perception of a photograph and its participation as a single in a mass or its function as a dimensional object as a part of installation or in and of itself. a traditional gallery space adds clarity to the works as they are juxtaposed with our expectations of such space. Just like Lorem Ipsum, these works are ‘readable’ visuals - recognizable by the viewer immediately, but a careful observation and read between the lines you see that it might not be what you thought it was.
