Frederieke Taylor Gallery presents a new series of colorful, abstract photographs by Sterck and Rozo. In the past, the artists have photographed each other in the Provincetown and Truro landscape on Cape Cod resulting in existential, dreamlike images of dark, non-descript figures. In another body of work, double-mirrored elements of the Cape Cod landscape formed crisp, kaleidoscopic images recalling ancient masks and mandalas. Throughout their work, they examine the relationship between theology, science and art and continue to do so with this new body of work.

“From Spanish Chapels to First Born”, is a series of photographs that were taken during the artists’ fertility pilgrimage through Spain, inspired by the historical pilgrimage taken by couples since medieval times that walked the Way of Saint James in hopes of bearing children. On exhibit, will be digitally abstracted images of places visited such as Spanish monasteries, churches, and cathedrals, as well as celebrations and events that took place during their personal journey to have their child.
