Nancy Bechtol and David Bechtol

Landscapes, digital imagining

This photographic installation by Nancy & David Bechtol is a dialogue of visual interest in the landscape motif. David Bechtol presents his high resolution realistic imaging of the landscape, then Nancy Bechtol takes that image and explores it, re-thinks it, and remixes it. Although the collaboration as spouses has been there for decades, this is a first for an artistic presentation.Embedded in the images are many hours of mind-bending discussions to come to this place. It is said that opposites attract. The visual dialogue works from this premise, exchanging information, awareness of the influences, but each one containing their own perspective.
