West Coast photographer, Thomas Heaphy’s Behind the Glass Door is an exhibition that he describes as ‘an eclectic collection of images’ on archival cotton rag. The pictures are taken from a broader body of work by the West Coast photographer.   Loosely landscapes, both big and small, timeless and fleeting, they are painterly and ambiguous, creating a feeling of familiarity, yet otherworldliness.

Heaphy’s  landscapes place an emphasis on aesthetic grandeur rather than a recognition of place.  The more abstract of his images are everyday microcosms and playful drive-by snippets.  They feature natural elements with minimal man-made material and avoid clichéd juxtapositions and irony.  Heaphy’s intention is to paint with the camera and create a body of original work for contemplation.
