Photo Exhibit
Library LobbyMaureen Drennan: Highway to the Sun
On exhibit in January
Of her exhibit, photographer Maureen Drennan writes, "My family lives in Middlebury and my stepfather, who is now 85, is featured prominently in this photographic project.
The photographic series ...is about a cross country road trip my stepfather took in 1951 while traveling to Alaska for work. He and his friends traveled in two model A Fords and barely made it due to constant car trouble. They kept a detailed log and took many photos along the way. The project includes their old photographs from 1951 and pictures I have made imagining their trip based on my fantasy and their stories.
Here are a few of the images from Highway to the Sun on my website.
My photography style is documentary and straddles description and lyricism.
I had the good fortune to have my photographic series on Broad Channel, Queens, a remote island community in New York City, get published last fall in the New York Times. Additionally, an image from my series on a reclusive pot farmer in Northern California was published in The New Yorker magazine in 2013."
