STUDIO GALLERY:  LESLIE KIEFER
Dates: October 30 – November 23, 2024 – Studio Gallery, 2108 R st N.W. Washington, D.C.

Leslie Kiefer’s work will be on display at Studio Gallery in Washington D.C., as a part a group show titled “Something Old, Something New”. She has been a member of studio gallery since 2024.

“As a photographer, I focus on the transitions between life and death, growth and withering; the eternal cycle of life. While these depictions were initially made with new technologies, i.e. a digital camera and processing, I wanted to enhance the sense of time passing by altering the final image through an old technology: Hand Gilding. Each completed image is hand gilded using very thin sheets of 24 carat gold leaf and then sealed to protect the print over time. My hope is that the richness of the gold color draws the viewer into the picture in a new way.”
