Presents
Dylan Hollingsworth

            Dylan Hollingsworth is a photographer and artist who focuses on organic and manufactured moments and ideas that touch on human and other living conditions:  Birth, death, waking, sleeping, being lost, being found, all the spaces in between.  Dylan says of his work, “I am now focusing on creating larger and more complete conceptual series in addition to shooting all that I see 24/7. More will be revealed.”           “This installment marks the 3 year anniversary of when I first was introduced to the camera and is a formal farewell to artistic infancy.  I have been able to capture a lot of life in a short time; for this show I have chosen some of the more engaging and meaningful images that I have shot. The road is narrowing as my concepts and ability to translate them matures, so this will be the last time I show some of this work.  This is a wide range of what I’ve seen, who I’ve been, and glimpses of life, the universe, and everything as I understand them. It marks the end of the beginning; these efforts allude to the valid and necessary body of work that is to come – enjoy.”

 Corey Godfrey was born in Nurnberg, Germany in 1981, but is based out of Fort Worth, Texas.  She received her BFA at the University of North Texas in 2008.  Corey is a lover of all things craft and has been creating since she was old enough to teach her siblings how to color on the walls. We have been brought up to fear and resist our erotic human desires. This dilemma is rampant throughout American social mores. Society generally denies erotica as a symbol of strength for women, while allowing it to be dominated by male determinants. The male gaze has often fixated eroticism on women, forcing society to turn away from its inherent power and simply viewing it as pornographic. Without the strength of eroticism, the world would be reduced to mere aesthetics. My work aims to represent the power of eroticism, pulling it from the bedroom or publication and placing it in the midst of the human gaze.
 Often, my works derive from male-based publications and images are captured from the male gaze by utilizing soft materials generally attributed to women. My interests within the power of female-based crafts in turn created a bridge into the focus of my work. In using these materials, I am simultaneously reflecting the strength of crafts for the history of women and engaging in an erotic physical process of creation. I allow the materials to guide me into new territory and tell me when to cease, giving importance to the negative space beneath the textiles.
 In my current series, I am blurring the lines between erotic male-based publications and erotic mainstream media by appropriating images from popular fashion publications. The images are designated because they represent similar provocative elements and potency that are dominant in exclusive male-based periodicals, thus revealing that the erotic is becoming more prevalent in mainstream culture.

Alicia Stepp-Woody
 
Dallas, Texas – Dallas artist Alicia Stepp-Woody has an exhibition of new photographs titled “While She Sleeps” at the Magnolia Gallery, located inside the Magnolia Theatre in the West Village, 3699 McKinney Avenue in Dallas from January 7th to February 24th, 2010.  There will be an opening reception on Thursday, January 7th from 8-10 PM. Admission to the reception is free and the art is available for viewing or purchase during regular theatre hours, or by contacting Scott Horn at magnoliagallery@gmail.com.  Go to www.magnoliagallerydallas.com for information about this event and the gallery. 
Alicia Stepp-Woody is a 33 year old photographer who was born, raised, and still calls North Texas home. Moved by the surreal and the extraordinary, she was drawn to the magical ability to capture frozen moments in time from an early age.  Alicia naturally gravitated to the art of photography due to her compositional eye and long-standing penchant for the use of color and light. While she is available for a myriad of commissions, her heart lies in the ability to evoke powerful emotion through fashion editorials and the magic of crafting new, fantastical worlds through the use of abstract and avant-garde concepts.
“While She Sleeps” is an introspective series on the emotional and psychological landscape of sleep. “As a child, and even into my adult years I have been moved and intrigued by sleep. In my life, I have found comfort in the last few waking minutes of pre-slumber consciousness, knowing that somewhere, while I’m sleeping, the world is still breathing, moving, living.” This knowledge acts as a metaphorical security blanket. The intent of this series is for the consideration of the juxtaposition of the subconscious and the need or desire to retain a continued connection with our waking existence while we are away in sleep.
