Exhibition - A Moment in Time by Marcus Lelle

Gallery 110 presents a new exhibition from mixed media artist Marcus Lelle that uses both photography and audio recordings to define a specific moment and place in time. Through the fusion of sight and sound, this exhibition aims to encapsulate the essence of fleeting moments. Each striking pin-hole photograph printed on metal serves as a visual window into a singular moment, while the accompanying recordings provide a soundtrack that enhances the narrative. By capturing the interplay between visual and auditory stimuli, A Moment in Time transcends traditional boundaries of perception, offering a multisensory exploration of memory, emotion, and the human experience.

“I wanted to focus on moments that the audience could share for a minute or a lifetime-sounds and stills that would not otherwise be recorded and lost to time,” says Lelle. “This has been an exercise in finding beauty and getting lost in the everyday-an exercise in reflection and mindfulness.”

Marcus Lelle is a local photographer and mixed media artist currently based in Everett, Washington. After studying photography at Montana State University, he moved back to Seattle and began his career at a local portrait studio. During his studies, he realized that photography is a two-dimensional art form with little to no physical interaction for the audience. In painting, sculpture, and other art forms that are three dimensional, the artist and the spectators have something that they can feel or walk around. His goal as a photographer is to bring some of that physical dimension to the camera and prints.
