Artist Statement:

‘Empyreal Expanse’ is a visual journey into the vast, transcendent spaces that exist beyond the everyday. Through my lens, I explore the interplay of light, shadow, and scale to evoke a sense of wonder and infinite possibility. This collection invites viewers to step into moments where the earthly meets the celestial, encouraging reflection on our place within the boundless universe. Each image strives to capture not just a scene, but an experience—an invitation to lose oneself in the sublime and the expansive.

Bio:

David Jensen is a photographer and Occupational Therapist based in Rocky Mount, VA. Growing up near the Jersey Shore, he began experimenting with disposable film cameras as a child, aiming to capture the perfect shot. After earning an art degree from Washington College, he developed a strong passion for film photography. As an adult, he has traveled extensively and strives to create images that invite viewers to join him on his journeys. Some of his photographs from Iceland were featured by SOME / THINGS bi-annual publication. His work is driven by a unique eye for symmetry and connecting images through synchronicities across time.


The exhibition is on display through March 27, 2026.
Access is available during exhibition hours or by appointment only:
