Wisconsin Photographer Brings Viewers to a Dreamy Main Street
By Matthew Long-MiddletonAmy Fichter uses her iPhone and an antique twin lens reflex camera to capture surprising images of Main Streets throughout Wisconsin.
Her exploration, inspired by Mapping Main Street, has given her new insight into her own art and community: “Through working on this project I have learned more about who my neighbors are, what they care about, and how they identify themselves. I have learned about the history of these people and places. I have been surprised at the treasures I find.”
Her show opens at the Lake Pepin Art & Design Center on Saturday, February 6 and runs through March 27.
