Jesse Diamond brings the night sky into the Farmani Gallery for the opening reception of his photographic series Drive. This series, born of late night drives, captures landscapes illuminated by what the nighttime provides – street lamps, traffic lights and at times the moonlight through the mist. To recreate the ambience within the imagery and connect the viewer to the mood, the special lighting will fill the gallery and surround the photographs and the onlooker.
For this one-night only lighting effect, Diamond enlisted Fusion Lighting in New York. “The gallery ceiling will be filled with deep blue, simulating moonlight,” said Marcus Mordachini, of Fusion Lighting, “the entire gallery will have an effect of the night sky inside.”
The Farmani Gallery is proud to feature Diamond’s series Drive, in its debut exhibition and the first New York show for Mr. Diamond. The opening reception will be held on Thursday, May 14, from 6-9PM and coincides with the one-year anniversary of the Farmani Gallery in New York and the New York Photo Festival. The exhibit runs through June 12, 2009. Hossein Farmani states, “We are very proud to feature such a fantastic selection of Jesse’s imagery. We have loved what he has shown for us in Los Angeles and are very excited to exhibit him at our New York gallery, especially during a very special time for us as we celebrate our one-year anniversary. Jesse’s work is a highlighting example of the quality of work we try to present.”
