Spring Art Exhibit

Mary Perry’s Monochrome and Beyond Art, March 3rd - May 20th

View this art exhibit anytime the Library is open. The exhibit is primarily on the second floor of the Library.

Mary is a native Utahn working in digital photography. As a young child, her playgrounds were the Mountains of the Wasatch Front and the Great Salt Lake. It was there her foundation began as a lover of birds and nature. One of Mary's goals is to gain a deeper knowledge of nature and educate others through her creative vision in photography. Mary is mainly self-taught, continuing the quest to strengthen her photography through various workshops around the world.

Her goal is to capture what she feels when in nature and the world through her photography. For some of these moments/experiences, monochrome is her visual response to what she is feeling at that time. Other times it is pure color that speaks so loudly like the start of a new day or the colors of something unique in her view. These unspoken visual sensations resonate deep within her soul, which she interprets through monochrome, color, and composition as a visual artist in digital photography.
