MAYLEE NOAH & SPIKE MAFFORD
VIDA MIRADA: Photographs of Oaxaca & Michoacan

Gallery 110 is pleased to present the photographs of Maylee Noah and Spike Mafford documenting the Day of the Dead celebration and everyday life in Oaxaca and Michoacan, Mexico.

As an observer, Noah is drawn in, engulfed in the action, unwittingly a player in the scene. A glance; she’s noticed. A smile, a greeting; she’s not invisible. It would be so much easier if she were. But then, she’d miss the warmth of the exchange, the reward of acceptance, and the opportunity to take the photograph as a gift.


Mafford is a traveler hunting the perfect moment, invariably a fleeting one, and relishing the sense of the elusive 'now' to be captured. It's a game of chance, of waiting for the moment, of chasing shadows in the hopes that they will speak of ephemeral, subtle things. He's inclined to chance upon a place, a frame that intrigues him, and to hang around, waiting to see what happens; waiting for an interesting action or odd juxtaposition; waiting to step back from the moment and catch the image.

Monika Dalkin: Constructions

Monika Dalkin's work reflects a division of space as well as disparate elements which are connected to form a cohesive composition. This combination reflects the synthesis of different aspects of daily life. Dalkin uses a vocabulary of color, shape, repetition, references in nature and daily ritual to create a type of internal landscape.
