Serna\u2019s work reflects not only his growth as a photographer but also his love for the art form. Through this collection, viewers are invited to witness the evolution of his craft, shaped by countless experiences and a persistent commitment to capturing compelling images.<\/p>\n Phil Serna describes his exhibition as a deeply personal exploration of his journey as a photographer. The collection of monochromatic images not only serve to express his interests and unique vantage point, but also his own self-identified fallibility and potential that define a dynamic artistic practice.<\/p>\n Each photograph was carefully selected by Serna from thousands, representing moments he has observed, individuals he has met and unique places he has experienced. Together, these images offer viewers an opportunity to appreciate how Serna feels he has \u2018learned to see\u2019 the world around him, using photography as his preferred method to convey perspective, and provoke thought, emotion and reflection.
