“He looked at his own Soul with a Telescope. What seemed all irregular, he saw and shewed to be beautiful Constellations; and he added to the Consciousness hidden worlds within worlds. “ - Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Notebooks

The Christopher Henry Gallery is pleased to announce ”The Spiritual Life of Imperfection,” its first solo exhibition of New York-based photographer Thatcher Keats.

There is a spirituality in the imperfect world of Keats: he helps us to see, understand, and accept the inescapable imperfection that is the human condition. In a chaotic world dominated by the moving image, Keats’ work explores the transformation of experience and being into a singular moment. These visual biographies have a cinematic effect, drawing out fleeting moments into an endlessness of sensation that becomes a permanent part of our conscious memory and awareness. Keats’ distilled essences of life serve as powerful graphic translations of culture, forming a nonverbal language that changes the way we perceive our world. Lost in the shadow cast by our conscious mind, Keats shines a light on the hidden, repressed, and previously unseen aspects of our collective being.
