Landry Major, Standing Still in a Constant State of Departure
Wednesday, June 18, 2025, 12:00pm to 1pm
Portland Art Museum Photography Council Lunchtime Talk Series
1119 SW Park Ave.
Portland, OR 97205
In the Trustee Room, 4th floor in the Mark building

Standing Still in a Constant State of Departure
Landry Major and Cash Kasper
In her lunchtime talk, Landry Major will discuss the photographic series
made in harmony with her son, Cash.
On Christmas Day of 2023 her beloved son died.
This collaboration came out of the need to honor their relationship. To show
how, even after he left the physical world, they are still connected. The
series title is from a line Cash wrote in a notebook Landry found after his
passing. She believes it was his feeling of always being on the verge of
leaving this life but standing still staying for her.
These images are double and triple exposures comprised of collodion wet
plate, Polachrome slide film, Polaroids, gold and silver leaf on vellum and
film images. Landry and Cash's images blended into a vision of the new place he inhabits.
Love that defies space and time. Hands that reach out to find each other
between realms. Traveling beyond intense grief into understanding that they
are still together.
Landry Major is a photographic artist who splits her time between Los
Angeles, California and Portland, Oregon. Landry has won honors from
Photolucida's Critical Mass, the Julia Margaret Cameron Award, and Lurzer's Archive. Her work has been seen in The New York Times, Time Magazine, AAP Magazine, Black and White Magazine (UK), Analog Forever Magazine, and Western Art Collector Magazine. Landry's work has been exhibited at the Center for Photographic Art, Carmel, CA; Griffin Museum of Photography, Winchester, MA; A Smith Gallery, Johnson City, TX; SE Center for Photography, Greenville, SC; and PhotoPlace Gallery, Middlebury, VT.
The Portland Art Museum Photography Council offers its members unique
opportunities to learn more about the history of photography with Julia
Dolan, Ph.D., the Museum's Minor White Curator of Photography. Council
membership dues support the acquisition of photographs for the permanent
collection. The members' annual print share meeting, private tours with Dr.
Dolan, and special invitations to lectures by renowned photographers are
just some of the benefits of Council membership.
The Portland Art Museum Photography Council's Lunchtime Talk series,
conceived in 2009 by Past Council President Jim Leisy as a means of
introducing the Portland photography community to the wealth of talent and
creative energy in our region, has become one of the Council's most popular
public events. Since its inception, the LTS has offered over one hundred and
thirty monthly presentations by regional and visiting photographers/artists
that are free and open to everyone interested in photographic arts and
process.

The Online Auction itself will be open for bids starting May 1st and continuing through July 31st. The entire selection of photographs will be online, so, starting May 1st, visit https://www.auctria.events/PAO... to view and bid!
Don’t miss this great opportunity to acquire fine-art photography at auction prices while supporting photography events in the Willamette Valley!
Photography At Oregon has had a busy and successful season, sponsoring exhibits and talks by many talented artists over the past year, including the exhibitions Shifting Focus at the Maude Kerns Art Center, featuring eight specifically invited photographers, Logic of the Subconscious by Steve Dzerigian at the New Zone Gallery, Unseen Images, a group show by the PAO committee members at Dot Dotson’s and Whispers of Nature by Franka Gabler at the Emerald Art Center, not to mention the many artists’ talks, lectures and, of course, our monthly Last Friday Photo Movie Night.
But we can't continue without your help!
We are looking forward to an active turnout for the 2025 Auction! Remember, that all auction proceeds go toward promoting and sponsoring photography exhibits and events by PAO, as they have for the past 45 years. Our success is directly due to the generosity of many fine photographers donating work, giving back to the medium we all love, as well as the generosity and commitment of our bidders.
Please share this with others!
We can't reach out to everyone who might be interested having one of these fine photographs in their art collection, so feel free to share with friends, neighbors, businesses, art collectors, or whomever you think might like be interested.
Michele Thompson, I Will Not Hurt Myself/I Will Not Hurt Others
June 7th - June 30th
Opening reception: June 7, 2025, 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.
Franklin Foto
8953 N Lombard St
Portland, OR 97203
Wednesday – Sunday, 12 p.m. to 8 p.m.
Franklin FOTO is pleased to announce our exhibition for the month of June. I Will Not Hurt Myself/I Will Not Hurt Others, will run from June 7 to June 30 and will feature photography by Michele Thompson from her book of the same name.
I Will Not Hurt Myself/I Will Not Hurt Others combines traditional photography with the abstract and text to talk about suddenly finding oneself in the middle space, freed of personal history, with both passion and apprehension for the future and distrust in the contentment of the now; that it could all be an illusion, something to be snatched away at any moment.
"When I was young, I lusted after the freedom that would come with being an adult. In some ways, it feels like my generation has never completely grown up. Holding onto that inner child maybe isn’t such a bad thing. But it feels like there was a box that didn’t get checked. I kept waiting for some line of demarcation that never came…"
An opening reception is scheduled for Saturday, June 7, from 5-8 p.m. Ms. Thompson’s work will be on display through the month of June.
Franklin FOTO is a community darkroom and gallery space located in Portland’s St. Johns neighborhood. Contact manager@franklinfoto.org for more information.

LightBox Photographic Gallery opens Kathy Radie’s "Outlawed Territory" from 4-7pm on Saturday, May 10th. LightBox invites you to share the night with LightBox Guild member Kathy Radie who exhibits a collection of work in the LightBox Upper Gallery.
"The back roads of America’s West always have a story to tell. The story becomes more interesting as the road narrows and the gravel roughens.
Through my lens, I capture fragments of forgotten dreams and emerging stories. Each frame is a piece of a puzzle made up of abandoned ambitions, heartbreak, the enduring beauty of the land, and the resilience of those who dare to settle in this rugged region.
Who were the dreamers that envisioned a church, a business, or a ranch in these locations? And who, even today, tries to make a go of it in this demanding yet breathtaking landscape?
My photographs provide a fleeting glimpse into a faded past, filled with secrets and layered stories that may never be fully uncovered. They also capture present pursuits rich with the promise of untold chapters waiting to be written."

Bachelor of Arts in Fine Art Photography and Art History, The University of Iowa
Giustina Gallery at The LaSells Stewart Center Presents:
Personal Mythology
Deadline: Friday, June 13, 2025 at 11:59 PM PST
Exhibition Overview:
The Giustina gallery invites artists to explore the inner narratives, archetypes, and symbolic language that shape their personal identity and creative vision. From spiritual iconography and ancestral stories to imagined worlds and inner demons, this exhibition seeks work that transforms the deeply personal into the profoundly universal.
We are seeking artwork that delves into how individuals construct meaning, identity, and myth through visual language. How do your dreams, memories, cultural heritage, or invented realities inform your artistic practice? What symbols reoccur in your work, and what truths—or fictions—do they reveal?
We welcome both literal and abstract responses.
All work must be wall mounted.
Important Dates:
Submission Deadline: Friday, June 13, 2025 at 11:59 PM PST
Notification of Acceptance: By Friday, June 17, 2025
Artwork Delivery/Shipping/Return: Details will be provided in registration.
Exhibition Dates: July 11, 2026 - August 26, 2025
