As an ongoing project, Gabriola Photography Club curates the art display space downstairs at the Gabriola Medical Clinic on Church Street, Gabriola Island. Club members take turns having solo exhibitions or taking part in group exhibitions.
Gabriola Photos Club member Steve Struthers’ fascinating new chapter in his “Postcards from the Heart” series is now on, this time with the focus on West Africa. In Steve’s own words:
“The photographs in this show offer a glimpse of a part of Africa that provides astounding scenery and a kaleidoscope of peoples, with crowded markets and almost empty deserts, bad roads and great rewards at the end of long, bumpy rides.
Join me on a trip from the Sahara of southern Morocco, through Western Sahara (administered by Morocco but yearning to be independent), the Islamic Republic of Mauritania, Senegal, and seldom-visited Guinea Bissau and its offshore islands known as the Bijagos Archipelago. I hope these images allow you to feel some of the excitement and wonder I experienced during my visit to these places.
Enjoy the photos, enjoy the journey.“
The show will run until August 1, 2024.
