Join the Museum of Florida Art and Culture at an Artist Reception for the photography exhibition “Atmospheres,” with artist Nabil Harb in attendance.
Merging Science Fiction and Southern Gothic traditions, Lakeland artist Nabil Harb’s photography allows us to see visual complexity and historical connections in pictures of easy to miss places.
The title of the exhibition refers to Harb’s interest in depicting the rich sensory experiences that exist in Florida, specifically its wet and heavy air, as well as the other ways that water can travel in fog, rivers, and storms. Whether he’s photographing under a tank, on hunting trails at night from the bed of a pickup truck, or going outside to photograph in the middle of Hurricane Ian, the smells, tastes, sounds, and tactility of the environment he is photographing make their way into his pictures.
