Harris and Company Art Gallery - Sable Island: A Photographic Journey
Saturday, September 04 – Monday, October 11, 2010

Sable Island’s stewardship is presently in question creating debate on all sides of the issue. However, one thing is clear – Sable Island is a place of amazing splendour offering a unique and diverse ecosystem. Whatever the final decision, it is hoped that Sable Island remains a place of continued protection resulting in the preservation of Nova Scotia’s ‘Gem of the Atlantic’.
Harris and Company Art Gallery, located at 1104 West Jeddore Road, Head Jeddore, is excited to present its long awaited exhibitionSable Island: A Photographic Journey. It will showcase images of Sable Island by six artists exploring, as Ewa Dunlap says, “a place of the greatest beauty in spite of the harsh living conditions.” The Opening Reception will take place from 12:00pm – 4:00pm on Saturday, September 04th, 2010. For more information about the gallery’s latest art exhibition and gallery hours contact Randy Bullerwell at 430-2135 or by email at randy@harrisandcogallery.ca .
Featured Photographers: Ewa Dunlap, Musquodoboit Harbour, Nanciellen Davis, Halifax, Cathy Mooney, Lower Sackville, Richard Dunlap, Musquodoboit Harbour, Wayne Garland, Halifax and Randy Bullerwell, Head Jeddore

"The moment always dictates in my work. What I feel, I do. This is the most important thing for me. Everybody can look, but they don't necessarily see. I never calculate or consider; I see a situation and I know that it's right, even if I have to go back to get the proper lighting".
