ASTORIA — LightBox Pho-
tographic Gallery celebrates
its ninth birthday with the
opening and artists’ recep-
tion of the Plastic Fantastic
Show IX from 6 to 9 p.m.
Saturday, June 9.
This annual group exhibit
originated with LightBox’s
love for images made with
basic plastic “toy” film cam-
eras as a way to celebrate
the gallery’s anniversary
each year. A large number of
photographers from around
the world shoot images
with basic cameras, creat-
ing unique photos that are
captured on film.
The images achieved
from this photographic
method using cameras with
less-than-perfect optics and
control lead to unpredictable
and sometimes extraordi-
narily beautiful results.
Renowned fine art pho-
tographer Susan Burnstine
of Los Angeles once again
juried the exhibit. Burnstine
is an acclaimed photograph-
ic artist shooting with film
using rudimentary home-
made cameras of her own
design, consisting of plastic
lenses and vintage camera
and household parts.
This year Ryan Synovec
of Seattle received the ju-
ror’s top award for his image
“Monumental Cactus.”
Lilyan Aloma from New
York, N.Y., received the
Second Award for “Herald
Square,” Priscilla Kanady
from The Woodlands, Texas.
received the Third Award for
“Meghan in the Shadows”
and Jim Rohan of Wakefield,
Mass., received Honorable
Mention.
The Plastic Fantastic
Show IX runs through Tues-
day, July 10.
