A picture is worth 1,000 words – what about a song? Can a picture inspire a song or fifteen? In 35mm: A Musical Exhibition, every photo creates a unique song, moments frozen in time; a glimmer of a life unfolding, a glimpse of something happening. The digital age has transformed photography into a method to gain social clout, but 35mm: A Musical Exhibition reminds us of the power of photography to stop time and tell our stories.
