SARAH C. BUTLER: FROZEN IN TIME
AUGUST 31 – SEPTEMBER 14, 2017

OPENING RECEPTION AND BOOK SIGNING WITH THE ARTIST: THURSDAY, AUGUST 31, 5-7PM

“Drawn to reconnect with her mother after a long estrangement, Butler found that taking photographs of the partially restored Maine farmhouse where the older woman chose to live ultimately gave her the perspective to understand and respect her mother’s choices. The images are striking and evocative: A pair of little girls’ dresses that once belonged to Butler and her sister, which her mother kept for decades; a corner of the beloved but fading house with its foundation jacked up on a pile of rocks; a partial glimpse of her mother, present yet unknowable — these and others reveal a complex and compelling narrative.”
