Photographer Mary Anne Mitchell will exhibit her new series of photographs entitled Poetic Translation at the Mason Murer Fine Art gallery in Atlanta beginning Friday, February 17, with a reception for the artist from 7:00pm to 10:00pm. The exhibition, Mitchells third at the gallery, runs through Saturday, March 31.

With the Poetic Translation exhibition, Mitchell explores the artistic juxtaposition of visual and written expression. In this series, Mitchell was inspired by the writings of 19th and 20th Century poets and writers, including, Louisa May Alcott, Hans Christian Anderson, Samuel Beckett, Lewis Carroll, Emily Dickinson, T.S. Eliot and Edwin Muir, among others.

In her photographs, Mitchell portrays her interpretation of the lyricism imbued in the respective authors poetry and prose verses, which touch upon universal themes such as nature, dreams, identity, loneliness, and spirituality.

She chose the particular selection of literary verses to explore the sensuality of expression, the search for meaning, and the myriad emotional aspects of life, with the aim of creating a moment of shared recognition of life.

Mitchell uses traditional photographic printing techniques to create lith and silver gelatin prints, which are then treated with selenium, and toned to enhance the timeless quality and enigmatic draw of classical verse. The technique of her current work involves using film often manipulating it to achieve a grainy ethereal quality. To enhance the process, she used a variety of photographic papers to further nuance the images.

Mary Anne Mitchell lives in Atlanta, GA has been working as a photographer for more than 25 years. Her previous solo shows at Mason Murer Fine Art include Altered States in 2009 and Reflecting Back in 2007. The Wells Gallery in Kiawah Island, South Carolina showcased her exhibition entitled Gothic Mystique in 2010.

This Photograph- Brenda Duong © Music video for my song that I wrote, This Photograph. Sometimes we’re just stuck in photographs. We want to go back to that captured moment and relive it, but we in reality- we can’t. Follow Brenda Duong on Twitter! brendaaaduong Become a fan of Brenda Duong on fb! www.facebook.com Become a fan of JeFresh Media Productions on fb! www.facebook.com Become a fan of Grapes Studio’s (Michigan) on fb! www.facebook.com Lyrics: Close your eyes let’s hug once more Let’s be in love again. Entangled hands and sprinkling rain- Let’s think of way back when… The leaves would fall, and we would lay On the dull green grass. The whispered wind, our touching skin, While tender kisses last… while tender kisses last. Chorus: We fell in love in Summer’s sun, talked all through the night. But nothing lasts, that’s called the past- I ‘m stuck in this photograph and I can’t seem to let go. Memories, they all seem to fade… But you’re as clear as yesterday. Alluring world, you brought me into, Now I can’t seem to let go of you. Promises in eternity- you said you’d never let go of me… Look at us now, we’re tumbling down. Chorus Bridge: I know that the sun will rise, but I still cry. I ‘m lost without you by my side- lost but still tryna’ find. Chorus
