August's featured show is "Kate Breakey: Loose Ends". Stephen L. Clark Gallery presents this series of hand-tinted fine art photographs. "I collect things as souvenirs, the scraps and fragments, the things discarded," Breakey says. "My heart is like a series of boxes and drawers and ledges and shelves - a place to keep the things I have loved, so that I always remember. I am a collector of loose ends."
