BETH MOON will have two new bodies of work in this exhibition, Odin's Cove and Diamond Nights. In addition, Beth will be signing her new book; Ancient Trees: Portraits of Time released this September by Abbeville Press. Beth set out on a 14-year odyssey so as to capture the stoic beauty of some of the world's most magnificent trees. Ancient Trees captures form and texture in these significant trees.

The Odin's Cove study consists of intimate portraits of a family of ravens. This body of work was made along the foggy and overcast northern Californian coast. Moon named the location Odin's Cove after the Norse god Odin. Odin was reported to have had two ravens that flew across the land so as to keep him in touch with events around the world. The Ancient Trees and Odin's Cove are platinum palladium prints in small editions.
