No Man's Land

Since I missed class last week, I went to the No Man's Land exhibit at the porter square AIB gallery. The images were beautifully printed, especially the black and white pieces. Many of the images conveyed a great sense of loneliness and abandonment. In this series of photographs it stays true to its title "No Man's Land", as there is not one portrait in the series. My Favorite photographs from the exhibit were the one of the moss and lush landscape, its colors were beautiful and the textures were very interesting. the "Abandoned Farm Near Elizabeth City" pictured farm equipment on another beautiful landscape. The photograph titled "Gettysburg Adams County, Pennsylvania" was almost dream-like. The colors of the grasses and brush are dark in the foreground and fade to lighter green in the background. The sun is a baby-blue with fluffy clouds, and it seems like something that could not exist in this country. I liked that many of these pieces are places I may never see because of their random locations in rural countrysides.
