Joshua Meier to exhibit photographs related to memory in the Mezzanine Gallery in August

Joshua Meier will present an exhibition titled [Un]Remembering, in the Delaware Division of the Arts Mezzanine Gallery from August 2-30, 2013. The Gallery, open weekdays from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., is located in the Carvel State Office Building, 820 N. French Street, Wilmington. There will be a reception to meet the artist on Friday, August 2 from 5-8 p.m. as part of Wilmington’s Art Loop.

This solo exhibition of Joshua Meier’s work will showcase a series of images related to memory. [Un]Remembering is about the process of selecting which experiences we choose to remember and those we choose to forget—in other words, the editing of memories. In this way, the act of forgetting takes on a more active role as we decide what to hold on to and what to let go; the memories we wish to keep intact and those we attempt to recreate.

Joshua Meier has exhibited his work nationally and this is his first exhibition in Wilmington. The artist received his MFA from the University of Tulsa and is currently the Head of Photography at St. Andrew’s School, Middletown, DE.
