Photography by Jay Hemphill
This powerful photography exhibit runs through March 2026 and presents more than mere landscape documentation. Hemphill’s images evoke the profound solitude, immense scale, and raw beauty that define the pristine Gila Wilderness landscape.
Each image represents not only technical mastery but also physical dedication, as Hemphill ventures miles into the backcountry with heavy equipment to reach locations accessible only by foot. The resulting photographs capture the essence of untouched wilderness, offering viewers a visceral connection to landscapes that remain largely unchanged since its designation as the world’s first national wilderness area in 1924.
This exhibit runs through March 2026.
