Sarah Kernohan. Splitting Distance 3. Pigment print on Hahnemüle agave paper, 69.2 x 61 cm (27.25 x 24 in), 2024. 

Splitting Distance opens at the Red Head Gallery this week.

The exhibition features a series of photographic collages that transmit icy surfaces, tumultuous waters, rocky shores, and portals. This flint originated from the shores of France or the United Kingdom and is now found in Glace Bay, whose namesake was coined by French settlers, who named the location “Baie de Glace” (Bay of Ice). The chalky surface of the flint gives way to semi-translucent surfaces with reflective flecks and shards, similar to the textures and patterns found in ice and light bouncing off of water. 

I will be at the gallery on Saturdays, October 19 and 26, from 12 to 5 PM, and there will be a closing reception on Friday, November 1, from 5 to 8 PM. 

I’m thrilled to collaborate with the CARBON Collective, who will host an informal reading and conversation about ethical ecological practices on Saturday, November 2, at 10:30 AM. The talk will be held in person and online. Learn more and register here: https://shorturl.at/QvSxf
