photo-eye Gallery is thrilled to announce new images and two new limited edition books by David H. Gibson, Mullein Along the Shore and Reeds and Morning Light.
David H. Gibson works with time, light and the natural world to build photographic portraits of a place through patience. Gibson’s images are ethereal, casting the natural world as a magical character in its own story, though it is the translation of these photo projects into book works that separates David H. Gibson from other landscape photographers in the same camp.

By allowing the viewer to engage with the work in such a material way, David H. Gibson prompts his audience to mirror his own gradual experience of looking and photographing; utilizing a method that merges the material with the conceptual.
Reeds and Morning Light, Texas Gulf Coast, December 24, 2019, photographed in one of the artists’ favorite places, provides a meditative series of photographs documenting a sunrise along the coast of the Gulf of Mexico. Exploring Reeds and Morning Light, like Mullein Along the Shore, offers the viewer a plethora of opportunities to intimately engage with Gibson’s photographs. The box accompanying this volume is made with equal immaculate care and contains four accordion books with a compartment for each.

Documenting the natural and inevitably changing world with a meticulousness that rivals that of Bernd and Hilla Becher produces stunning results for David H. Gibson. Engaging with these portfolios mimics the universal experience of watching the day begin, of feeling an early morning chill work its way out of your system while the winter sun works its way into a frozen world, of watching a place that puts you at peace truly come alive.
