Leanna Bre | So People-y

Please join us Thursday, August 7 from 5-8p in The Apothecary for So People-y, a photography exhibition by Leanna Bre.

So People-y is about the simple and overwhelming fact that the world is full of people and every single one is having their own experience all the time. We are surrounded by a loud, layered chorus of interiorities, if we care to notice and tune in. These portraits are an attempt to hold that complexity still for a moment so that we might observe our own participation.

We are always connected and disconnected, agreeing and disagreeing, moving and still. These portraits document the invisible space in between us: glances that don’t meet, a child wanting their mother and their mother wanting a moment alone, someone pressing in at the moment another pulls away. The camera isn’t claiming objectivity. Instead we linger inbetween what can be witnessed and the interiority which must be imagined. The viewer is invited to join the layered abundance of stories already happening, without resolution. After all, this is only another story of what is happening, another subjective experience.
