Art
His and hers
By LENNIE BENNETT
Published December 16, 2004
Need a respite from all that tinsel and a color palette limited to red and green? Visit the Arts Center, 719 Central Ave., St. Petersburg for "Fixed in Time: The Photography of Rebecca Sexton Larson and Matt Larson."
The couple do not work as a team; their very different stylistic approaches to the medium are obvious. They have in common an experimental technical approach, using back-to-the-basics equipment - she a pinhole camera, he a simple toy one - that gives their work, individual as it is, a shared freshness and directness. Both are narrative artists though Matt Larson's photographs (Fragile is above, left) are more straightforward; Rebecca Sexton Larson (whose Bird That Flutters is above, right) paints and draws on hers. The overall effect from both is evocative. Have a seat and slow down.
