Art Begins with Curiosity
Curiosity does not lead us to the end of a question, but toward the next one.
Joy Marie Curtis.
Inspired by science, history, mythology, theology, geography, and culture, Joy's work invites viewers to slow down and look again, see the details, and reimagine what they think they know.
Look again. See the details. Reimagine.
Look Again
Photography asks us to keep looking, long past the moment the camera clicks.
See The Details
The artist must choose where to look, what to follow, and which details carry meaning.
Reimagine
Art creates space to question, and imagine not just for the viewer but for the artists and author too.
