Theme
Jenny Tomlin’s pinhole photographs emerge from darkness as altered visions of the world, shaped by time, movement, and the interplay of light and material.

‘There the dance is’ has been created in collaboration with poet Alex Lindesay as an intersection of presence and absence, stillness and flow—what T.S. Eliot called "the still point of the turning world." The pinhole camera becomes an imagination machine, revealing unseen motion and suspending time within the frame. For Tomlin and Lindesay, this process is a search for connection—to place, to perception, to seeing itself—inviting viewers to find their own still point within the dance of observation.
