Exhibit
Noble Street by Kris Kelley
A judged exhibition with divisions for Photography and Fine Arts and Crafts.
Images illustrating the effect of dark and light are pervasive in our everyday environment: the light cresting over a hillside at sunrise, the darkness beginning to penetrate the atmosphere when storm clouds gather and hover low over the earth, a dark shadow created by the light hitting the angle of a building mid-morning or late afternoon. Although darkness is the absence of visible light, both light and dark are not without color, and the color is more noticeable, ironically, on a cloudy day.
What is your interpretation or expression of light and dark? RiverArts invited artists in all media to explore light and dark in all its infinite shapes, images and dimensions, literally or imaginatively.

Meet the Judges:
Daniel Kraus, Photography
Daniel Seth Kraus‘s work blends historical research with photography to deepen our understanding of people, places, and how they combine to create a culture. In practice, Kraus strives to create work which is informed and empathetic towards the subjects and his viewers. While maintaining his own artistic practice, Kraus is also working in collaboration with Byron Wolfe on two extremely rare microphotographs made by two 19th century photographers, the Langenheim brothers. Daniel lives in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where he teaches courses in photography, the history of photography, video, and web-art at Tyler School of Art & Architecture, Pennsylvania College of Art & Design, and the University of the Arts.
