Alex Kirkbride: American Waters Photographs

December 5, 2007—January 5, 2008

  The first photographic exhibition at Plus One Gallery, “American Waters” celebrates the work of underwater photographer Alex Kirkbride. Featuring images from all fifty American states, Kirkbride’s pictures are a truly memorable, original exploration of the element.  In 2002 Alex and his partner and producer, Hazel Todd, set out on an incredible three-year journey covering 108,000 miles while living together in an Airstream trailer.  Entering the water 945 times, Kirkbride took on the enormous challenge to ‘capture images expressive of American water from coast to coast’ and without a doubt, succeeded. Treating all bodies of water with equal importance, from a New York City puddle to the country’s rivers, lakes and costal water, Alex chose to keep his definition of ‘American Waters’ open-ended and unconfined.
