WHAT: First Thursday Reception: Portland Squared
WHEN: August 1st, 2013, 6pm – 8pm
WHERE: PRO PHOTO SUPPLY, 1112 NW 19th Ave., Portland
On May 17 and 18, more than 70 photographers converged on Portland for a 24 hour period to document a randomly assigned portion of four square miles. They used planes, cars, boats, and their own two feet as they captured our city from every possible angle. This gallery show displays the work and creativity that went into documenting the people, architecture and landscape of downtown Portland on that day.
All photography enthusiasts are invited to an opening reception, which will be held during First Thursday in the Wide Format gallery at Pro Photo Supply Thursday, August 1st, from 6pm-8pm. Snacks and beverages will be provided!

by Erica J Mitchell | Jul 19, 2013 | Project — The Sustainable Photography Project
A long term project of mine is to capture, connect and learn about the fundamentals of mindful agriculture and clean products. It is my goal to use my photography as instruments to provide documentation of sustainable practices to the public.
Most recently, I had the gracious opportunity to explore Sunbow Farm, founder of the Oregon Tilth, which is located just outside of Corvallis, OR. Harry and Cheri were wonderful hosts and I will not forget my time there. Harry gave me a full tour of the farm and described his personal processes of maintaining acres of food for the community. Needless to say, I was blown away. As a child of consumerism I was not exposed to the organic process or the relationship to the dirt/earth, for me it came in a box and I didn’t know anything different.
For years I have been learning about how food is grown and harvested outside of the boxes I’ve to consumed. This was my first time on an organically maintained farm, I was at the source of my project.
With an abundance of sunshine,
Erica
