“As a contemporary artist, Christopher Allwine skillfully navigates the space between traditional photography and the techniques made available through the digital darkroom. Lighting and color are derived in-camera, but long exposures, contrast and perspective are carefully utilized to enhance the atmospheric qualities of his imagery. The result is a profound narrative - a meditation on the passage of time. Allwine is an artist to be watched. His work is imbued with a knowledge and respect for the past, but is forward thinking and unafraid of innovation.”
