Dona considers her relationship with photography and visual art to be one of the most real and grounding parts of her life. Dona’s images invite the observer to explore ways of seeing and encourages the viewer to participate in the essence of the ordinary, be it the power of a simple gesture, the quality and diversity of light, or a moment in time that may otherwise have been overlooked, in a deep, dramatic and sensitive way. Dona’s new work, Transitional Evidence, will be on display at the Thistle Community Gallery, 4871 Broadway St, Boulder, CO 80304 in May and June. The opening reception is First Friday, May 7 from 6-9pm. Learn more about Dona and her work at donalaurita.com
