(Tourist Topographics)

Technology of documenting has opened a new platform for photography, the cellular phone. Bridget Gallery has discovered a corner in which she has chosen this discrete format of capturing moments and editing them as soon as she creates the image.

The instant work flow has a rewarding yet challenging aspect to it as the device driven culture is her nearest competitor. How does one rise above and make images of intrigue and question in a sea of selfies and ‘’phonetographers'? Pulling from her deep understanding of photographic history Bridget uses her device as a means of slipping between the cracks of brightly lit screens and moments going unnoticed by the apps of distraction.
Calling upon the simplicity of black and white she places herself back in the hands of composition, light, and design. Each photograph in a series or otherwise has a breath about it. Bridget Gallery is an artist with a keen observation of the minute moments of juxtaposition and design that link curious imagery with a touch of snark.
