The Crucible: A photographic exhibition by Mark Dixon

The Crucible, a photographic exhibition featuring the work of Mark Dixon comes to The Tunbridge General Store. Beginning with an Opening Reception on Sat. Dec. 5^th and running through Feb.24^th. (The store will be closed for the month of January)

Mark Dixon uses photography as a tool to create narratives; a means to tell a story. This exhibition tells two stories. Bronze is transformed from solid to liquid in the process of making sculptures in one group of images. A second room features photographs of contemporary street art from Marseille, France.  Dixon’s approach requires developing a story, planning a narrative around the subject(s), and being flexible when new ideas, driven by the subject or circumstances, emerge. The process often leads to surprising results, despite the planning; forcing him to look more deeply, work a bit harder, ask questions, and learn something about the subject and himself.
