Eileen Clynes will be talking about her body of work titled “Exceptional Holiness,” a modern take on Catholic Saint cards.  She will talk about the process in creating these pieces and the meaning behind them, as well as her time growing up catholic and the fascination with religious art.

Eileen Clynes is a Boston based photographer and Army Veteran from Albany, NY. Eileen Clynes is a recovering Catholic whose work meets at the intersection of her first exposure to religious art, her imagination, and her own definitions of spirituality. She has studied at Saint Thomas the Apostle-Bible study, Sage College, and New England School of Photography. She has exhibited her work at several venues, including the Griffin Museum, Darkroom Gallery, and Panopticon Gallery. She is currently the Member in Focus at the Griffin Museum.
