The Blending of Two Art Forms: A Woman’s Journey    Therese Halscheid April 19th, 7 pm Prallsville Mill, Stockton NJ Photography The photography of Therese Halscheid chronicles her itinerant lifestyle. For years house-sitting has allowed her to write and photograph in unusual and rustic settings. Her River Towns photographic series represents Nature’s ability to form artistic compositions. Many photographs document weather and its effect on the Wickecheoke Creek and surrounding woods and watersheds in Stockton, NJ. The play of sun and shadow, snow, and early morning fog captures the mystical elements of such a place. Recent work focuses on the abstract qualities of earth, and has expanded to include many river towns hugging both sides of the Delaware. Her photography has been in several juried exhibitions, among them Stover Mill Gallery, Noyes Museum, New Hope Historical Society, Artsbridge Exhibitions, and New Hope Arts Juried Exhibitions.     Writing  Author of five poetry collections, Therese’s most recent book Frozen Latitudes (Press 53), won an Eric Hoffer Book Award. Her poetry and lyric essays have appeared in numerous literary magazines. A recipient of fellowships and contest awards, her writing is inspired by her simplistic lifestyle — journeys that have taken her from a Florida swamp to the arctic north of Alaska, where she lived with, and taught poetry to, an Eskimo Inupiaq tribe. In celebration of April’s National Poetry Month, join us for an evening that shares a woman’s journey through the blending of two art forms: poetry and photography. Website: www.ThereseHalscheid.com
