The Photographer’s Eye Gallery is hosting an exhibit of hand-crafted photographic prints that were selected in its annual Alternative Photographic Processes juried exhibition, "(S)LIGHT OF HAND." More than 200 entries from across the United States were submitted for this exceptional exhibition. Michael Kirchoff, this year’s juror and editor of Analog Forever Magazine, narrowed down the prints to 40 for display, and named “Manzanita in the Round,” a photogravure by David Marsh, as his Juror’s Choice. Photographer’s Eye Director Donna Cosentino chose “Enchanted Forest,” a gum over salt print by Lisa Brussell, as the Director’s Choice. This exhibit opens on Sept. 14, with an artists’ reception from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. on opening day, and will end on Oct. 19. The Photographer’s Eye Gallery, a non-profit, is open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, and by appointment by calling 760-522-2170. The artworks on display are one-of-a-kind, hand-made works using myriad processes, including cyanotype, transfers, gum over platinum, chemilumens, tintypes, kallitypes, salt, phytogram, carbon transfer and more. 3-D works will also be on view. Each work will be accompanied by an explanation of the process involved to create it. In his juror’s statement, Kirchoff praised the artists for their creativity and skill in using historic and modern processes. “What I noticed when going through the submissions is the high caliber of images I found,” Kirchoff said. “Each submission was unique and special in its own way, and I discovered new photographers making excellent work.” He also said that “it is thoroughly evident to me that those living far and wide are playing an integral part in the success of this fine establishment.” The Photographer’s Eye will honor artists David Marsh and Lisa Brussell in a two person exhibit of their works in 2025. https://www.instagram.com/thephotographerseyecollective/ The Photographer’s Eye Collective on Facebook / Instagram
