/ Transmission Geist by Alice Pixley Young
We’re in the shortest days of the year. Twilight begins just after 5pm, and by 6 it’s dark. Throughout December, we experience only about 9 hours of daylight. Qualities of light become especially noticeable in winter when we experience more darkness. I invited two artists to share how they see light during this season. We met via Zoom to chat in the blue glow of our computer screens.
“I’ve always been attracted to the light that is generated in the Midwest.”
Julie Renee Jones teaches photography at the University of Dayton. Her portraiture series called “Umbra” places subjects in settings of powerful light.
