Seeking Symmetry
Matthew James Smith exhibits at Base Camp Coffee Bar
By Sally Slattery
Matthew James Smith sips a chai not far from the fire in Base Camp
Coffee Bar, turning his gaze from one black and white photograph on
the wall to the next - haunting, mesmerizing, and remarkably
symmetrical images of various landscapes, buildings, and objects.
Many of the photographs on display were snapped in Door County - though they are not your typical sunsets, well-known landmarks, or cherry trees. "A lot of these are from a couple miles away," says Smith, who currently resides in Ellison Bay. "I love it up here, but I'm running out of locations to shoot."
