“Machine Vision” at Candela Gallery is a sobering look at what that revised reality and its new cultural artifacts are shaping up to resemble. The survey of tech-based artists features photographers using robotics, artificial intelligence, and public surveillance cameras, as well as unconventional cameras such as scanners, computer monitors, X-rays and digital composites of appropriated, web-based images.

Candela Gallery is excited to announce UnBound7!, Candela’s annual juried & invitational exhibition.

We are very proud to bring you a compelling selection of photographic work for the seventh year in a row!

In his first solo exhibition at Candela Gallery, Harrison Walker presents his Portals project, highlighting a mix of photographic processes through a series of abstract works. In Walker’s words, the series is “an investigation of photographic chemistry, psychological perceptions, and ideas of duplication, mimicry, and the multiple.” Through experimentation and discovery the varied effects of his photographic, printmaking, and drawing techniques, seek to elicit not only an emotional but also a fundamentally experiential viewing.
