Store Gallery for June 2024: Bailey Lemkau
These are a collection of images from the city of Portland, a place I am still learning to love. Creating nostalgia for my experience in this town as they are happening in real time so I can be present in the change. These photos represent a feeling of home to me, in a place I’m struggling to find home in. I know one day I will move away from this city and I will miss it. I will remember the beauty it held and the people that amplified it. Here is a documentation of my growing love for Portland, in hopes the images will remind me of its glory when I am no longer here.
Artist Bio:
I am a film photographer from Eugene, OR. I recently graduated from the University of Oregon with a BFA in Photography. My passions stem from the process, whether that be taking a walk and creating images or developing film or printing in the dark. I often do not find the most joy in the final product, but the expectations I create, the excitement I feel, and the inevitable disappointment I may face. I love the anticipation and surprise film photography brings to my life.
