VISITING ARTISTS
The visiting artists section follows our mission statement in our support of many creative and engaged photographers worldwide by giving them a platform to promote a limited portion of their ongoing work. UPA Gallery will be rotating a new artist every four weeks, with their work offered in a very exclusive format and limited time.
Blake Yeager
From a young age I grew up around art and artists, spending many years searching for my voice. Most of my adult life I have been a professional musician using the guitar as my primary outlet, but in recent years I feel most able to grow and truly create through my photography. I shoot mostly medium and large format film with a hybrid method I’ve developed.
Something about the rawness and truth of film, particularly in monochrome, is intoxicating, revealing, and unique in a world where it is harder and harder to be singular. Using semi-functional vintage cameras, I find that to some extent I let go of
complete control, and allow for an outer source to intervene. I hope to be always learning and growing, to be inspired and inspire others and to create purely to create. To release my creative visions, thoughts, and sounds into the universe.
