Magnolia, No. 13, 2011
Bokeh, the Japanese term for an "aesthetic quality of the blur" in a photographic image, is the latest installment in Eisenberg's Sojourn in Seasons: Sketching with Light Amongst Trees, with this exhibit focusing specifically on the foliage of the spring and summer months. Eisenberg began the series upon the advent of her father's loss of both vision and memory and maintains the work is unabashedly retinal, as much object as it is image. Shot through a purposefully oversized pinhole or defocused lense and printed onto Japanese rice paper and lightly coated with wax, the images represent a distortion of recognizable form reminiscent to her fathers ocular and mnemonic deterioration.
Quaking Ash, No. , 2008
According to the artist, her work is "firmly grounded in the natural world, a particular place, a particular season, a particular time. But by obscuring detail, only the strongest brush strokes emerge: the images become sketches with light, literally and figuratively." Ignoring grand vistas or exotic locales, Eisenberg focuses instead on the ordinary rather than the spectacular, on the common landscapes of day to day life.
Forsythia, No. 3, 2011
As a working and teaching photographer in rural upstate New York, Eisenberg has exhibited in spaces ranging from the Center for Photography at Woodstock Permanent Collection, Dorsky Museum, New Paltz, New York to the Cordon Potts Gallery of San Francisco. Corporate collections include Banana Republic (New York, NY), Vinson & Elkins, LLP (Houston, TX) and the Sheraton Hotel (Stockholm, Sweden), among others. Bokeh is Eisenberg's second solo exhibition at the John Cleary Gallery, following her successful showing in March of 2009.
