Felicia Murray, EDGES OF TIME, 2019

There was a Canaletto hanging in a tilted fashion in the living room. There

was a Matisse winking at the dog. Such was the home of Felicia’s

grandmother, profound evidence of major cultural sophistication which

informed her talent and gave birth to Felicia’s perception.

Most passionately evident in Felicia’s images is her seductive talent for

living within the moment. This collection has an ironic fascination for all

things which breath and shimmer in the surreal light of time passing.

Ever since I’ve known her, 35 years now, she has been using the Leica and

now the Sony to record her ferocious appetite for people, places and

things…. peeking in through the experiences she reaped in Paris, New

York, Martha’s Vineyard and Arles, France.

All things are intimate for a curious eye, as each of these images

presented have clues to an inner world… the world of Felicia’s eye and the

world of those whom she perceives. We are privileged to be gifted with

her keen visions, as they speak of places where most do not go. It

suggests an eternal bohemia now almost gone, but fixed by image.

Felicia’s life beckons us to float freely inside this happy-sad collection. A

reverie of images holding fast to life’s worth, as she dances on the edge

with existential mirth….
