H.R. LoBue

Pixel Perfect:The Digital Fine Art Exhibition
January 26 - February 15, 2007

Reception: Thursday February 1, 2007 6-8 PM

Press Release

Using subtle digital manipulation to mimic the look of hand-colored photographs, H.R. LoBue's soft, Technicolor tones evoke daydream palettes and notes of vintage Hollywood . Seeking to reveal hidden landscapes of human emotion, LoBue creates a through-the-looking-glass world of costumed characters that conjures bygone eras and the guileless theatre of childhood. Donning mad hats, romantic frocks, and Cinderella gloves, LoBue's whimsical characters enable her to summon forth and portray the world of children not as a subject, but as a secret language. Within this world are rich vocabularies of fantasy, wonder, curiosity and confusion—for LoBue, ready-made art awaiting discovery. Declaring childhood the "genesis of emotional expression", LoBue accesses this magical realm by playing "dress-up" with those she photographs. As director, make-up artist and costume designer, LoBue is more a presence and creative participant in her own compositions than a detached observer. Capturing both children and adults in their natural "habitat", where play is effortless and imagination is a means of psychological survival, LoBue gives her audience insight into the roots of vulnerability, the evolution of defense mechanisms, and the birth of personality.
