Reality to Abstract
Rita J. Maggart, fine art photographer, and Dave Turner, artist and print maker, come together with a new exhibition called Transformations. Their concept is based on Maggart’s photographs taken at the Belle Meade United Methodist Church. Turner, who was inspired by their beauty, then brought to this process his skill and technique in digital art media, transforming different aspects of the images and creating a completely new presentation.
Maggart said, “Each time he wove his magic over the realistic image, our excitement grew as we observed not only the creation of a beautiful abstract but also experienced a deeper meaning in our own art.” Exciting, textured, a real visual delight, this show not only reflects the artists’ collaborative process creating the series, but it also presents a multi-layered theme of transformation for viewers to interpret.
