"Another Senseless Daffodil Death" (Cafe Gallery)

at Narrows Center for the Arts on Every Wednesday through Saturday from 03/03/2010 to 04/18/2010 – 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM

About the photographs:

The creation of this series of photographs began ( innocently-enough ) with a picture of cut daffodils, just beginning to open, in a vase in the photographer’s kitchen. A week later, the fading bouquet was bundled with an elastic bow and tossed out into the cold on a glass-topped patio table. As the flowers deteriorated, more pictures were made as time, light, and weather conditions affected the daffodils over the next six weeks, resulting an a wide variety of images.



About the photographer:

Jack Foley, 55, grew up in North Andover, Massachusetts. At age six, he was given an old box camera as a toy, and has been playing with cameras ever since. He is a staff photographer for The Herald News, a daily newspaper in Fall River, Massachusetts. He has been a newspaper photographer for more than 30 years. He and his wife, D.J., live in Warwick, R.I.

The result is a show featuring various works and mediums from these nine artists based on their experiences as Travelers, not Tourists.
