Andrew
Sovjani's photographs often take place during what he calls
the fringe hours, the quiet introspective time after the sun
has set, but before the sky has gone completely dark. The low
levels of ambient light found during these hours require the
photographer to use exceptionally long exposures, often keeping
the lens open for more than 30 minutes at a time.
While the lens is held open, the effects of time and movement
are allowed to accumulate and participate in the imagery - creating
a mood quite different from normal daylight photography. Additionally,
photographic film exhibits unusual behavior under these extreme
exposure conditions, often resulting in an increase in contrast
and helping to create an etched look and feel to
the image.
A musical performance by
The Day Rubies will make this an event to remember. |
