Vanishing Points by Michael Sherwin
Opening Reception: Thursday, January 16, 6:00 pm to 9:00 p.m.
Exhibit: Friday, January 24 to Thursday, February, 20
A vanishing point creates depth on a flat surface, drawing the eye deeper into the scene.
Shortly after moving to Morgantown, West Virginia, photographer Michael Sherwin learned of a local shopping center that stood on an 800-year-old Monongahela burial site. This discovery reshaped how he viewed the land he called home, revealing an ancient, sacred landscape overshadowed by modern development.
Through photography, the Vanishing Points project explores historical trauma, reckons with cultural amnesia, and reflects on our shared past, present, and future.
