Ordinary Time is a new group of photographs by Austin-based artist Elijah Barrett. In this work, ordinary subjects—a rose vine climbing along an old wooden fence; a young man exhaling from a cigarette; a loose tangle of electrical cable overhead—in their simplicity, in their disquiet, in their wistfulness, become “stations” or halting-places for contemplating the transcendent. The exhibition features 12 photographs, in color and black and white.

Opening: Friday, March 22, 2019 at 7 PM – 10 PM

Elijah Barrett in conversation with Chad Dawkins, Curator and Director of Exhibitions, Southwest School of Art, at 7PM

Gallery hours: March 23rd & 24th, 12-4PM

This project is supported in part by the Cultural Arts Division of the City of Austin Economic Development Department.
