Todays Special: Photographs by Bucky Miller



I visited the Step Gallery's current exhibit featuring photographs by Bucky Miller, for his undergrad show. Bucky's sense of humor is unique, and this can be seen in his photographs. What everyone else might view as mundane happenings, Bucky see's these missing pieces and photographs these quiet observations. Over the course of two years and several states, he has captured images that create a metaphorical commentary on a wide range of subjects.

I enjoyed his exhibit because it forced me to see the same things he sees in the every day, mundane idiosyncrasies of life. It is necessary to view the images several times and give it the attention it deserves, rather than a observance.

  1. That sounds like quite an interesting show. I wish we could have seen more pictures so that we could really grasp what the show was about. It sounds like a very interesting concept though. I like it when artists take the things we see daily and present them to us in a way we actually notice them.
