Bird, Wildlife, and Landscape Photography by Brian Goodman and Kerry Tremain

With sculptures by Tom Jay and Sara Mall Johani

Framed and unframed photographs from Outside In, some in limited editions, are available from this web site.

OUTSIDE IN combines multiyear projects by four artists and friends. Kerry Tremain’s Aves is a selection of his evocative photographs of birds over the past five years. The Solace of Space by Brian Goodman imaginatively recasts traditional landscapes to create visual spaces for comfort and wonder. Tom Jay (1943-2019) and Sara Mall Johani launched a new bronze sculpting tradition in the Northwest and pioneered art-inspired salmon restoration projects. These artists traverse the boundary between description and suggestion, keenly aware that our views of flora, fauna, and the landscape itself are shaped by myths, stories, and images over millennia of co-evolution. They bring the outside in, recognizing and appreciating our storied connections to the natural world at a time when modern patterns of life often disrupt and alienate them.
