NEWFANE — The March exhibit at the Crowell Gallery at the Moore Free Library, 23 West St., is “The Natural Order of Things,” a photographic exhibit by Alexis Doshas of Wardsboro.

In her artist statement, Doshas said she “selected images that explore my belief that humans are a part of nature and are inseparable from it. It is where we come from and where we return.

“What has emerged in my images is the intimacy of life and land. I look beyond the seductive and picturesque landscapes for the honest, quirky, and sincere in the world; however difficult or un-pretty - so we can begin to recognize and appreciate the intimacy in our own personal landscapes.”

According to a news release, Doshas wrote that she is “interested in mixing old-world and new-world techniques. I work with pinhole cameras made from tins, a 1950s model Rolleiflex, a Kodak Brownie, and more recently a Hasselblad 501c, cyanotype and Van Dyke printing processes, as well as archival inkjet prints from film and paper negatives.”

The gallery is open during the library's operating hours: Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, 1 to 5 p.m., Thursdays, 2 to 7 p.m., and Saturdays, 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
