Jayes Gallery is pleased to present the photographic images of talented Janelle Bowler in this forthcoming exhibition. Many of the works have been printed as large format giclees on canvas and would make a statement in any home.
Janelle says of her works, "So often when taking pictures I’m asked “Why do you get so close?”
Such unique perspectives, patterns, even colours come to life when you take a different point of view and go in close on your subject, whether with a camera or whatever media you choose to represent the world through.
Suddenly a plain old leaf lying in a gutter takes on new value and calls for appreciation as intricate details or fascinating forms that you never realised were there, emerge to enlarge your vision and the beauty that lies there unbeknown to the casual observer. What was just an ordinary scene, becomes extra-ordinary.
The beauty of the camera is that the lens can take you there, right up close where often your eye would or could never venture. The creative work is already done. You however have the great pleasure of revealing it to a world unawares.
Getting up close and personal certainly pays off in the end enriching our lives with the knowledge that beauty really is all around us."
Janelle's work is really perceptive and original so why not come and be inspired!
