On First Friday April 4-
People met at 210 Gallery at 210 Princess St. for their 7pm Art Talk.: Where the Light Fell.
After the Art Talk, we held our guided First Fridays Art Walk to a selection of galleries, artist-run centres and artist studios open late for First Fridays in the Exchange.
Part of FLASH Photographic Festival, the Exhibition features the work of three contemporary female photographers from rural and Northern Manitoba, Caley Brown (Brandon), Susan Crawford-Young (Manitou), and Noelle Drimmie (Flin Flon).
Where the Light Fell examines how light transforms human experience, the exhibit captures fleeting moments where light touches its surroundings revealing both the poignant fragility and enduring beauty of life.
The exhibit features a range of photographic scenes, from expansive landscapes and intimate portraits to detailed close-ups of farm machinery. These images illuminate a texture of rural life, where time, toil, and nature converge. Through the photographer’s lens, these artists invite us to pause and observe how light can transform the ordinary into the extraordinary.
The title, Where the Light Fell, hints at a quiet moment of insight, inviting viewers to consider not how light reveals the world, but how it influences our feelings and perceptions. In these photos, light does more than illuminate—it softens, enriches, and defines, encouraging reflection on the emotional scenes presented in this exhibition.@caley.brown.photography

We are reorganizing our ART TALK/ART WALK programming and hope to be back with an exciting new series in the near future!
A reminder that Galleries often have Artist Talks on First Friday.
Please go to What's ON! to see this month's lineup.
