Emotional Odyssey
Joseph DeFay and Carol Sanzalone
Exhibit: October 6, 2022 - November 6, 2022
Opening Reception: Saturday, October 8, 2-5 pm
Photographing subjects up close, DeFay provides the ability to see
details that one would not ordinarily notice. It is fascinating to
explore and observe how individual elements interact and to present them
on a grander scale than the ordinary obvious perspective. His intention
is to compel each viewer to linger with the same vision that he enjoys
behind the lens. DeFay enjoys the interplay between vibrant colors and
that special quality of light, which invariably captures his attention.
He spends a great deal of time with composition, searching from behind
the lens for the precise arrangement of the subject. This work allows
DeFay to preserve these moments, in order to share this valuable
experience with others.
Sanzalone, inspired by the interaction of color and forms, creatively
captures the graphic impact of natural and reflected light patterns,
throughout the day and seasons. With texture, shapes and washes of
color, a painting will often develop from an experimental, rather than a
realistic approach to a subject - " The painting and I work together,
as one thing leads to another! " - says Sanzalone. Artistically, her
"Emotional Odyssey" has included work in a variety of media, painting in
watercolor, acrylic, oil and printmaking in silkscreen and lithography,
as well as professional experience in Graphic Design. When she
considers a subject she is always drawing on that creative history.
