Opening Reception: First Friday, Oct 7, 6-9 PM at Tenn Street ART, 4418 Tennyson Street, Denver, CO, 80212, Phone: 303.455.0279 Tenn Street ART is located inside Tenn Street Coffee & Books. Artist will be in attendance. Musical Guest: The Hoagies, 7-9 PM. Tenn Street ART Contact: Sharon Meriash, 303.646.7187 or sharon@sharonmeriash.com The Artist: Tara Hornung has been working in traditional darkroom work, alternative photographic processes, and printmaking for almost 20 years. At present, her image making process begins with an exposure made on film with a Holga, a plastic, medium-format camera with an imprecise character that lends richness and ambiguity to the story of place. These exposures are further transformed by printing them in a traditional intaglio technique on the printing press. Tara’s profession as an art conservator has taken her worldwide to work as a steward of cultural heritage, and to develop her knowledge of artists’ materials and appreciation of ancient and historic craftsmanship.

The TNN show will feature works from Sharon's life as a photographer/artist capturing images and creating works from over 20 years in Colorado, California and the Midwest. THEN will feature traditional prints from her beginning days as a macro/micro photographer for Denver Botanic Gardens. Her larger than life botanical images are still a popular part of her history of work. NOW will showcase her stunning fabric works of aging structures and skyscapes. These pieces feature her hand texturing style which she calls "painting in reverse". Each piece is a one-of-a-kind. NEXT will highlight the newest direction of her work, digital transfers. This will be the first large display of her wood panels and transfers. Images in this group are a combination of the old with the new for a changed view.
