Paul Griffin Photography Presentation on May 17

Join us at the ICC on Saturday, May 17 at 3 pm for a presentation by photographer Paul Griffin and to view his exhibit The Stones They Left Behind.

The Stones They Left Behind is a photographic presentation of some of the historic remnants of ancient Irish culture that inhabit the natural landscape of that beautiful and enigmatic island. Paul Griffin made this series of black and white infrared photographs during his visits to his ancestral homeland. The photographs of Neolithic  Dolmens and abandoned castles explore the intersection of history and myth, the physical and spiritual and the visual and the unseen.

The twelve black and white images were made using an infrared sensitive camera rendering aspects of the scenes beyond the visible spectrum that our eyes are normally sensitive to.

Photographer Paul Griffin lives in Leeds, MA. He has taught and worked with photography for over fifty years. His work has been exhibited in Paraguay, Washington DC, Thailand, Singapore and Northampton. His photographs have also appeared in books, newspapers, magazines, and online.
