Thomas Carr in Solo Show at Pirate Creative

Photographer Thomas Carr, one of Pirate’s most recent associate members, brings an arcane exhibition of black-and-white images inspired by horror author H.P. Lovecraft’s Dream Cycle, which dives into terrifying revelations of a hidden otherworld reached through dreams and ancient deific progenitors. Though Carr shoots the original imagery using film and old-school vintage cameras, he uses modern techniques to tweak spooky effects through digital collage and montage. He calls it a “synthesis of photography and archaeology,” seeking the mysterious sense of presence while photographing historical sites trod by people who lived centuries ago.
