Harry Longstreet is retired after twenty-five years as a writer, producer and director of filmed entertainment, primarily for television.

He’s always looking for images that speak to the human condition and the world around him. He favors ambient light and unposed, unaware subjects. In the last fifteen years, he’s had a number of one-man shows, and his work has appeared in more than two hundred national and international juried exhibitions.

Longstreet is twice a Single Image Merit Award recipient from Black & White Magazine and twice a Single Image Merit Award winner from Color Magazine.  In 2013, he was awarded the Gold Medal (monochrome) in the International Varna Salon, and in 2014, he took Best in Show in the annual CVG Washington State competition and in 2017, First Place-Photography.

ALIGHTING by Kathryn Dunlevie
(Click on image for larger view)

Kathryn Dunlevie says, "Opening Up for me has meant opening up in my studio practice and in my thoughts about how we might move more freely through our lives. I have been working on a new series of feminine characters who meet the world head on.

These Femmes Fatales are viewed as if with x-ray vision, their patchwork interiors hinting at what they have lived; their silhouettes offering clues as to how they have proceeded through time.

They are pieced together with fragments from our shared visual history, then situated in anonymous venues from my photographic archive. Suggesting limitless possibilities and enigmatic narratives, they inspire unapologetic authenticity and a daring sense of adventure."

Kathryn Dunlevie is a photography-based artist whose work has been exhibited throughout the U.S. and internationally. Cathy Kimball, former Executive Director of the San Jose Institute of Contemporary Art, writes of Dunlevie’s work:

"Through brilliant compositional detail and manipulation, she creates disconcerting, surprising, inexplicable spaces and scenarios – swimming pools that have many points of entry, streetscapes that elude mapmakers, and interior settings that are almost, but not quite, right."

Born on the east coast, Dunlevie lived in six different states by the time she was 12, and in Paraguay when she was 16. She has a B.A. in fine arts from Rice University, and studied art history and film at the University of Paris, painting at California College of the Arts, and photography in Madrid. She lives in Palo Alto.

Dunlevie has received numerous awards and fellowships, including two Arts Council Silicon Valley Artist Laureate Fellowships and an International Photography Awards honorable mention. Her work has been exhibited at FotoFest International since 2002, at the Pingyao International Photography Festival in China, at Studio Thomas Kellner in Germany, in the US Art in Embassies Program in Moscow and in Saatchi Arts’ Best of 2014.

Her work has been reviewed in Spain’s La Fotografia Actual, Korea’s photo + and Germany’s Profifoto, as well as in The New York Times, Camerawork: A Journal of Photographic Arts, Photo Metro, Artweek, and Artlies.

AQUARIUM by Kyle Mangione-Smith
THIRD PLACE
(Click on image for larger view)

Kyle Mangione-Smith says, " Parents have played a key role in pushing America to open back up in the past several months. Having been cooped up working from home with their children, fearing stunted development as a result of online schooling, they had very legitimate reasons to want things to return to normalcy.

Of course, the idea that the behaviors and dynamics that have evolved within families over the last year would suddenly drop to the wayside once public spaces opened back up was a fantasy that many had been clinging to, and one that couldn't ever hold true in reality. Across three of the most established destinations for Los Angeles families (the Getty, the Aquarium of the Pacific, and the Santa Monica Pier), these photos seek to document the ways that the pandemic has altered the ways parents and children interact with each other and the world around them within environments that were previously seen as stabilizing for the family dynamic."

Kyle Mangione-Smith is a filmmaker and a photographer from Seattle currently residing in Los Angeles. He received his BFA in Visual Media Arts at Emerson College in Boston in 2020.
Career Highlights: Kyle Mangione-Smith has previously had short films programmed by the Boston Underground Film Festival, Wicked Queer Film Festival, BLOW OUT: International Arthouse Film Festival, and the Rio LGBTQ International Film Festival.

MOTHER AND SON by Marcus Bastel
(Click on image for larger view)

Marcus Bastel says, "What it meant to me. I am based in London, for a number of years my mum, who is based in Germany, has been receiving cancer treatment. Born in 1941, her prospects are not the best and only in the last month she has lost 5kg (11lbs).

The last time I saw her was a year ago with first lockdown in the UK just over and Covid numbers in Germany low. I think the general outlook at the time was that we would master the pandemic soon enough and life would go back to normal. At the end of July 2020 I bought a car to drive to Germany. It being both my mums and my birthday in August it seemed a good idea to try and see her not knowing how much time we would have left and what course the pandemic would take.

Since then a year has passed, vaccines arrived and most of my family had received their second jab by August. Travel rules kept changing, but with my mums eightieth birthday coming up I was very much set on returning to Germany to celebrate it with her. These are some of the pictures I shot on our reunion. 

We visited my grandma’s grave and placed a flower on her stone.

We posed for the remote camera on a bench overlooking the cemetery.

And a portrait just before I left her behind to return to the UK."

COOLING OFF by Olesya Konovalova
(Click on image for larger view)

Olesya Konovalova says, "For us, opening up was scheduled for June 15, 2021, in LA county and turned into a 15-hour-power-outage in 111°F. Tried to cool off by spraying water from spray bottles, filled a wading pool for the kids. Spent the evening outside looking for glimpses of sunset and repair crews."

Olesya is a Russian-born American artist residing in Southern California. She completed her Specialization in Photography at MSU via Coursera in 2017. Olesya studied Linguistics and Translation at Chelyabinsk State Pedagogical University and Fashion Design at the College of Light and Textile Industry. Her works were part of Juried Exhibitions in MoAH Cedar in Lancaster, CA, and are in the current one. A group show was in Las Laguna Art Gallery in December of 2020. Olesya received multiple awards at MoAH Cedar.

ROME, CELLPHONE by Sarah Chow
(Click on image for larger view)

Sarah Chow says, "As a student this past year I welcomed the vaccine and was eager to get back to normal life. As everything started to open up with cautions I was happy that I was able to visit friends in Italy, especially when it was hit so hard initially by Covid-19.

I carry a camera wherever I go so I can capture whatever strikes me, often moments on the street. It was interesting to see so many without masks in Rome but I attribute that to people needing to get back to normal.

I've studied art and photography at Santa Monica College and UCLA and traveled extensively through Europe, Japan, Greece and the U.S. to photograph and absorb the culture and art."

Her work has been exhibited at the Santa Monica College Emeritus Art Gallery &
published in 
Outdoor & Travel Photography Magazine.
