Root Hall
Open March 20, 2021 through July 18, 2021

Margo Kessler Cook, is a Fine Art International award-winning photographer. She is also a self-taught artist who has worked in printmaking, fabric design, and metalsmithing. Her approach to photography is that of a quiet observer who discovers interesting things in ordinary places, shedding light onto subjects that many times go unnoticed. Cook is known for her architectural images, often in black and white. She often takes the language of shapes, forms, and lines creating abstract compositions giving the photograph a degree of independence from the normal visual reference.
