Join us for an evening of light refreshments, pleasant conversation, and great art with photographer Carl Cascella. This Gallery Opening event will give the public a first look at Carl’s MCL exhibit, Images from Vermont to Maine, with a chance to speak with the artist.

Artist’s Statement:

The natural world – mountains, streams, clouds, and trees – inspire my photographs. Some are representational; others might be described as abstract. Either way, my intention is to create images that convey an effect that transcends the literal.

When you visit the exhibition, you’ll see that I have attempted to create visual metaphors that convey the essence of my subjects. I’ve also tried to imbue the photographs with a sense of both wonder and humor.

I hope that you enjoy my work, and please feel free to send along any questions or comments directly to me: carlcascella@gmail.com

All the Best,

Carl Cascella
