Exhibition Opening from Steven DiGiovanni
In this exhibition, Steven DiGiovanni seeks to navigate in the liminal terrain between the disinterested aesthetics of forensic photography and the poetics of space and narrative. These paintings are based on pictures that Steven took in his Westville, New Haven neighborhood. Others are based on photos taken around Nagoya and Tokyo, Japan.
