drkrm.gallery is pleased to announce the west coast premiere exhibition of Cinemascapes, panoramic photographs by Aaron Hobson.
Raised in industrial Pittsburgh but now based in a small Adirondack Mountain town near the Canadian border, photographer Aaron Hobson has a keen eye for beauty in rural decay. He has created a series of images that have gained international attention with their original and unique approach to the traditional genre of panoramic photography. Cinemascapes are a hybrid between autobiography and fiction, with Hobson himself always in the star role. They are at times, haunting and scandalous, other times inspiring, but always come across as closely personal. Reflective of his 30 years of experiences, emotions, and challenges throughout his life, Hobson creates images that not only viscerally and visually grab the conscious mind, but also linger in the viewer’s imagination and memory.
Creating panoramics from 4-5 sequential vertical images allows the viewer√¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s eye to explore shifting focal planes and become immersed into a scene full of unsuspecting details and hidden plots more than a single frame could suffice. Each image seemingly captures a moment in time that poses many questions, not the least of which is what’s going on here?
