Dreams and Tempests
Scott Mc Kiernan and The KONA Gallery invite you to experience Haiti
thru the eyes of an amazing photojournalist.
Proudly Presenting Benjamin Rusnak’s 'Dreams & Tempests'
Meet the Artist Opening Night
Photojournalist Benjamin Rusnak has covered the tropic states
including Haiti for the past decade. His compelling stories have won
awards and been published worldwide.
Covering the earthquake that shattered Haiti January 12, 2010 was
another chapter in the tragic history of this tropic region. Geography
and weather, drought and flash flood, relentless heat and oppressive
poverty - caught between these forces Haitians summon faith and hope
to seek out an existence and still dream. This body of work seeks to
transcend traditional panoramic photography, creating not only
landscapes, but 'peoplescapes' in a new and intimate way.
