“Beholder”

Photographs from an abandoned auto body shop off Hwy. 134 between Seagrove and Troy comprise the exhibit “Beholder,” by North Carolina artist Ty Brueilly, on display through July at LabourLove Gallery in Durham. Ty Bru says the selection in Durham comes from 60 images made in spring 2012 showing “the essence of the perception of beauty in a raw, untouched, unmoved and sometimes lifeless, decayed, tainted and often inert form.” More pieces are on display in Shanghai, China. Ty Bru, a 2005 graduate of Appalachian State University, founded Mightier Than the Sword Records, Photography & Literature in Asheboro. LabourLove Gallery is at 807 E. Main St., Suite 2-130, in Durham, (919) 373-4451 or labourlove.com
