Up Stream: Fly Fishing in the American West – June 20 – September 27, 2009 – An exhibition of photography by noted photographer and fly fisherman, Charles Lindsay.

Carbon: Science Fiction Worlds of Charles Lindsay – June 20 – September 27, 2009 – CARBON is a creation of fictitious worlds, drawing on Lindsay’s interest in the aesthetics of space exploration, microscopic discovery and abstract symbols. He is intrigued by the idea that so much of our expanding scientific knowledge is based on images from beyond our body’s normal scope of vision and interested in the challenge and implications of comprehending our relative scale within the universe.
The ‘photographs’ are made from negatives which utilize a carbon emulsion on a transparent base – the result of experiments and manipulation. Numerous generations in the fluid’s history create minute evaporation trails, rendering an archeology of time. http://www.charleslindsay.com
