Trish Simonite, a native of Norfolk, England, recently retired as a professor emerita from Trinity University, where she taught photography and digital art. Her art is peripatetic: her still life images and landscapes have been exhibited widely throughout the U.S. and Europe. <\/p>\n

For the new exhibition \u201cExquisite Entropy: Photographs by Trish Simonite, 1972-2025,\u201d curator Paula Owen selected 125 of Simonite\u2019s images that reinforce fluidity, at once capturing the liminal and historical contexts in which these images were originally created and allowing the work to slide into contemporary contexts where new meaning abounds. <\/p>\n

From the Greek Isles to Texas honky-tonks, Simonite pilots the viewer through a sort of benign Cloverfield Paradox in which still moments become as slippery in a temporal sense as they are ethereally beautiful. <\/p>\n

The opening reception for the exhibition will take place this Friday. Simonite also is scheduled to give an artist talk at 1 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 26. <\/p>\n

Free, opening reception 6-8 p.m. Friday, Aug. 28, on display noon\u20135 p.m. daily, Russell Hill Rogers Galleries at the University of Texas at San Antonio Downtown Campus, 1201 Navarro St., (210) 458-4352, utsa.edu.<\/p>\n
