The peripheral field is a portion of our visual perception, part of the visual field that is not at the center of gaze. A space that is often lost in the path of our lines of focus/attention. The Peripheral Field exhibit challenges artists to use photography or photography techniques, installation and video art to reveal the aspect of this lost reality. Emphasizing the idea of a dimension that lays on the border of the non-existence within the perception of our life. Artists investigate this subject literally, as a personal matter, perhaps as an analogy for a social issue, or even as a paradox.

Artists showing in Peripheral Field include Robert Lach, Robert Pre, Robert Greco, Robert Langdon, Bill Westeimer. Terry Boddie, Elaine Schenkel, Paul Jach, Jen Somma, Kevin Cooke, Andrea De Felice, Heidi Sussman, Stan Sudol and Lorena La Grassa.
