Angela Bacon-Kidwell (Kunst)

*****
Angela Bacon-Kidwell brings substance to her subconscious thoughts and dreams through her surreal and beautiful photographic imagery. The ethereal images both reflect and evoke an emotional reaction, allowing viewers to connect to the subconscious feelings on a conscious, waking level.

"As I move through my day, I am keenly aware of my encounters with people, places and things. I mentally record the details of these situations, and these fleeting associations replay themselves in my dreams. The random moments combine to form sleep stories that are rich narratives, ripe with symbolism. With that as my model, I construct sets, use props and invite myself and models to perform in a natural, intuitive way. In essence, I attempt to create a waking dream."

The "Reveries of Imagination" exhibition combines images from two of Angela's recent series: Traveling Dreams consisting of black and white images and a collection of color work entitled Reverie. Angela has a BFA from Midwestern State University, Wichita Falls, Texas, with specialization in painting and mixed media. Her photographic work has received numerous awards and honors and has been exhibited and published both nationally and internationally.

All photographs are archival ink pigment prints in editions of ten or twenty-five and in varying sies depending on the image.
