Piyatat Hemmatat: 3rd Eye Trilogy: The New Dawn
June 11 – July 23, 2015

OPENING RECEPTION with the artist: Thursday, June 11, 6–8pm

3rd Eye Trilogy: The New Dawn is the first of a three-part series of photographs inspired by the mystery and beauty dwelling within the lens—the “third eye” that Hemmatat uses to create his photographic universe. Of the twenty-four macro photographs in this collection, fourteen will be on exhibit at The Dryansky Gallery from June 11 through July 23, 2015. This exhibition will mark his first solo show in the U.S. An opening reception will be held on Thursday, June 11 from 6-8pm, with the artist in attendance. The lens, as an extension of the photographer’s eye, has long been imbued with mysticism­­—capturing the paranormal, stealing the soul, or simply freezing a moment into an object. As a photographer, Piyatat Hemmatat likens the lens to his “third eye”, an esoteric concept conveying the ability of perception beyond the physical world.
