“BIG LOVE”: Photographs by Lisa Granozio are on view through November 4 at the Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices/Fox & Roach, Realtors offices at 253 Nassau Street. An artist reception will be held on Wednesday, September 21 from 5 to 7 p.m.

“Emergence: Expanding in Light,” a photography exhibit by Lisa Granozio featuring over 20 plexi-mounted and framed photographs, is on view through November 4 at the Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices (BHHS)/Fox & Roach, Realtors Princeton
offices. An artist reception open to the public will be held on September 21 from 5 to 7 p.m. The show, most recently showcased at The Nassau Club, includes an additional seven images.

A professional photographer, Granozio seeks to reflect beauty and light in her subjects, and through her work provide a connection to the healing powers of the natural world. Building upon her 2020 series “The Light Within,” which seeks to shine light on our inner shadows and to access our individual light to heal, Granozio now presents “Emergence: Expanding in Light.” This series of large-scale macro images reflects our potential to resurrect ourselves again and again — like flowers in spring, emerging reborn with an expanded luminance of our truth and an amplified capacity to share our light.

According to Granozio, each photograph in the exhibit reflects the qualities we feel when we move from an embodied secure place. “Like spring rising from the darkness of winter, by returning to our inner light and embracing the shadows that have shaded that light and thereby constricted the expression of our fullest selves, we increase our capacity for self-love and emerge with strength, wisdom, grace, spaciousness, and radiance,” she said. “We shed what no longer feels authentic and we rise expanded, having acquired an inner peace that affirms our humanity. And, when we shine our brightest light, we make room for others to do the same. Expanding our light raises the vibration collectively.”

“Emergence: Expanding in Light” is curated by David Lawson of Morpeth Contemporary in Hopewell for The Gallery at BHHS/Fox & Roach, Realtors. Lawson wrote, “The combination of brilliant colors and powerful compositions in Lisa’s images work in harmony to draw the viewer in and engage more intimately with her gorgeous floral subjects, asking us to reflect on our own life essence and innate relationship to the natural world.”

Wendy Merkovitz, vice president/sales manager of BHHS/Fox & Roach, Realtors said, “We value this opportunity to engage with our community and support local artists.”

Granozio is passionate about connecting others to the healing powers of the natural world through her images. A permanent installation of 15 large-scale photographs is on now display in the therapy rooms and public spaces of Trinity Counseling Service (TCS) in Princeton. Additionally, she was a featured speaker in TCS’s 2021 speaker series, Light, Color, and Nature: Connecting the Inside and Outside for Balance, Wellness, and Health. To advance her passion, a portion of all sales directly support the work of TCS and the Hope for Depression Research Foundation.

Drawn to details that engage the eye, Granozio‘s passion has taken her beyond her garden to interior regions of Panama, the coastal Atlantic and Pacific, the canyons of Utah and Arizona, the streets of Havana, Cuba, and hillside towns of Europe. Her award-winning photos have been published online and in national publications. She owns and operates LAG photography, a fine art and portrait photography company. Her work is available through lagphotography.com and instagram.com/lisagranozio.

The Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices/Fox & Roach, Realtors offices are located at 253 Nassau Street. The exhibit is open to the public during business hours Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on weekends by appointment only.
