The Space Between the Sky and Me: Photos by Steffanie Halley
A few months ago I was cycling along, doing my brisk late fall morning ride through Crown Hill Open Space, when my phone rings. It was SCAD MFA candidate Steffanie Halley calling me to see if I'd be interested in looking over her body of work. She was in town, and her adviser and my prof-of-old, Craig Stevens, had told her to look me up and get my reaction to her images. She was about four months out from staging her thesis show, and had a lot of images to work with. Later that week, I met Steffanie in south Denver and checked out her photographs. They were large, color location portraits of women. Some were fairly straightforward, and others were more fragmented. I saw two or three possible thematic groupings, any of which could turn into a nice show. They struck me as wonderfully mysterious and narrative, with a strong sense of composition and color. Pretty cool, all in all.
I got a postcard from Steffanie this afternoon for her thesis show, titled "the space between the sky and me". Judging from the four images on the card, it looks like a nice tight show, with some great images. I wish I could go and see it for myself. If you are in Savannah in January, go check it out. It's at Alexander Hall Gallery, 668 Indian St.. The opening is on January 11th, from 5-7. If you see Steffanie, congratulate her for me!Labels: photography, SCAD
