Ralph Weiss Photographs

February 18 to April 22
Gallery Hours: Wednesday, Saturday & Sundays from 1 to 4 p.m.
Reception: Saturday, March 24th from 2 to 4 p.m.

Ralph Weiss’ photography is an ongoing exploration of natural forms. Working only in black and white, he uses vintage camera and darkroom equipment that is painstakingly maintained.
Weiss’s images test the edges of light and most of his prints require hours in the darkroom.
This exhibition, drawn from a private collection, focuses on images of ice, water and sea plants.
These photographs represent a small yet powerful set of images of the natural world.





House tours are available on Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays, from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., except on noted holidays.
The sanctuary will be closed on APRIL 8.
