Patricia Houghton Clarke in South x Southeast Photomagazine
Congratulations to Patricia Houghton Clarke for this wonderful article in South x Southeast Photomagazine.
“The ability of images to create community has a persuasive emissary in Patricia Houghton Clarke, whose simple yet powerful portraits of both refugees and townspeople in Italy, England, and the U.S. create pride in their communities for being welcoming and instill hope in the refugees as they are welcomed. Her presentation—wheat pasting large portraits in local neighborhoods—creates its own community of faces, larger than life, each allowed to be seen.”
“Clarke is an alchemist. She uses her camera to connect people thus transforming individuals into communities. She endows her images with life through her large scale installations and offers them to all who pass as exemplars of who we can be.”
