Each artist interprets the medium in unique and innovative ways, while remaining deeply engaged with tradition and respectful of the past.

Todd Gray: A Place That Looks Like Home Light Work Gallery
Price: Free Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
For his exhibition, "A Place That Looks Like Home," artist Todd Gray re-frames and re-contextualizes images from his personal archive that spans over 40 years of his career as a photographer, sculptor, and performance artist. Gray describes himself as an artist and activist who primarily focuses on issues of race, class, gender, and colonialism. His unique process of combining and layering a variety of images and fragments of images allows him the opportunity to create his own history and "my own position in the diaspora." Working with photographs of pop culture, documentary photographs of Ghana (where he keeps a studio), portraits of Michael Jackson, gang members from South Los Angeles, and photo documentation from the Hubble telescope, Gray asserts what he refers to as his own polymorphous identity that defies definition. Inspired by the work of cultural theorist Stuart Hall, Gray invites the viewer to participate in an "ever-unfinished conversation about identity and history."

Price: Free Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
Light Work is pleased to announce the 42nd annual Light Work Grants in Photography. The 2016 recipients are Robert Knight, Lida Suchy, and Marion Wilson. The Light Work Grants in Photography program is a part of Light Work's ongoing effort to provide support and encouragement to artists working in photography. Robert Knight received an MFA in Photography from the Massachusetts College of Art & Design and a BA in Architecture and Economics from Yale University. His work has been exhibited nationally and internationally, including at the Danforth Museum of Art in Massachusetts, Jen Bekman Gallery in New York, the LaGrange Museum in Georgia, The Bascom in North Carolina, the Houston Center for Photography in Texas, and at photography festivals in Nantes, Le Mans and Arles, France. Recent solo exhibitions include Rated G at Gallery Kayafas, Boston, MA; In God's House at the Munson Williams Proctor Art Museum, Utica, NY; and Class of 2015 at the Wellin Museum of Art, Clinton, NY. His work is in the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and other private collections. Robert is currently Assistant Professor of Art at Hamilton College. Lida Suchy is a first-generation American, born into a refugee family and often draws on this background as inspiration for her creative work. She earned a BA in cultural anthropology from SUNY Albany, an MA from Syracuse University's Newhouse School of Public Communication, and an MFA from the Yale University School of Art. Suchy taught photography at Rochester Institute of Technology and Hartwick College, she has led master workshops in the USA, Italy and Ukraine. She currently teaches at Onondaga Community College and mentors students both at home and abroad. In recognition of her creative work, Suchy's awards include a Guggenheim Fellowship, Fulbright Scholarship, a Light Work Artist Residency and a Light Work Grant, a NYSCA Grant, an ArtsLink Grant, and an International Research and Exchanges Fellowship. Suchy has exhibited in galleries in the USA and Europe. Her work is included in public collections at the Brooklyn Museum, Bibliothèque Nationale, George Eastman Museum, the Franko Museum, Kryvorivnya, Ukraine and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Marion Wilson has built collaborative partnerships with botanists, homeless people, students, and neighbors—accessing individual expertise and working non-hierarchically. Her own studio work uses artifacts of the photography industry in sculpture, painting and printed photographs; specifically researching and classifying endangered landscapes and useful and stress tolerant botanies. Wilson recently drove MossLab/The Mobile Field Station (a renovated RV as a mobile art and botany viewing lab) 1,600 miles from Syracuse to Miami as a special project for PULSE ART Fair 2015 collecting moss species and experiences of "first looking encounters" with species along the way. Wilson will have upcoming exhibitions and residencies at Schuykill Center for Art and Environment; McColl Center for the Arts in Charlotte, NC and Sculpture Space in Utica, NY. Her work has been published in Hyperallergic, The New York Times, Art in America and Sculpture Magazine.

Todd Gray: A Place That Looks Like Home Light Work Gallery
Price: Free Light Work Gallery
316 Waverly Ave., Syracuse University,
Syracuse
For his exhibition, "A Place That Looks Like Home," artist Todd Gray re-frames and re-contextualizes images from his personal archive that spans over 40 years of his career as a photographer, sculptor, and performance artist. Gray describes himself as an artist and activist who primarily focuses on issues of race, class, gender, and colonialism. His unique process of combining and layering a variety of images and fragments of images allows him the opportunity to create his own history and "my own position in the diaspora." Working with photographs of pop culture, documentary photographs of Ghana (where he keeps a studio), portraits of Michael Jackson, gang members from South Los Angeles, and photo documentation from the Hubble telescope, Gray asserts what he refers to as his own polymorphous identity that defies definition. Inspired by the work of cultural theorist Stuart Hall, Gray invites the viewer to participate in an "ever-unfinished conversation about identity and history."
