About Belger’s Installation: Mr. Belger has been gracious enough to offer RIVET a rare opportunity to exhibit his Yama camera and print installation as part of the exhibition. This outstanding piece of working sculpture is composed of two fully-functional dual-pinhole cameras joined together to and sharing the confining space of a jewel-encrusted 500 year old Tibetan Lama (monk) skull (http://boyofblue.com/cameras/yama.html) which combined produce a 3-dimensional image of what the skull “sees”. Mr. Belger designed and created Yama for two photo series, the first being his interpretation of the incarnation of modern Tibetan deities, and the second being a series in the Tibetan refugee cities of India, a home coming captured through the eyes of a 500 year old Tibetan. Exhibited only once in Los Angeles since its creation and the first appearance of any work by Mr. Belger in Columbus, Yama alone makes Darkness into Light a must see exhibition for any local resident and art lover.
