Since its inception in the summer of 2023, fine art photographer J.K. Lovelace's downtown gallery, Slice of Light, has been a magnet for astrophotography and nature photography enthusiasts and all visitors who appreciate the beauty of his world-renowned, uniquely shot landscapes, seascapes, nightscapes and deep sky art. His stunning images make the inaccessible accessible, the real surreal and the ordinary extraordinary.
Lovelace's photographs, all of which are available as limited-edition metal and giclée prints, reinforce his mastery of visual storytelling and drive home the notion that every picture is worth a thousand words. The business offers free virtual fine art consultations so clients can preview what potential purchases will look like in their own space, as well as professional delivery and installation services and custom framing for gallery prints.
Between photoshoots in far-flung locations across the country, Lovelace occasionally holds in-house talks that both delight and provide insight into his artistic process. Slice of Light joins other local galleries in celebrating monthly First Thursday evenings of art and culture-centric activities. This is a great time to mingle, have a glass of wine and meet the welcoming staff. Explore this low-key, high-reward gallery, take respite from the sometimes chaotic outside world and immerse yourself in the stunning "worlds" gracing these gallery walls.
We were fortunate enough to catch up with Lovelace recently, and here's what he had to say about his inspiration, what catches his eye, planning the perfect shot and more.
