Lily Summerwind - "Fade to Black" Exhibit
January 14, 2017
Roissy Art Gallery was honored to present and showcase the lovely Miss Lily Summerwind's creative talents today with her NEW exhibit: "FADE TO BLACK".
Lily's eye for detail and shadows and light play are clearly represented in her photos depicting scenes from pastorial serinity to eroticism.
Our Roissy Val d'Oise family gave Lily a warm reception, enjoying not only viewing her lovely artwork, but also meeting and talking with her. Lucky for us, we were able to purchase our favorites to proudly display in our own homes.
We wish Lily continued success with all her creative endeavors and hope to have her back in the future for another amazing exhibit.

On January 14th, 2017 Roissy Art Gallery held an Artist Reception for the work of Miss Lily Summerwind (LiliMango Resident). The Exhibition titled "Fade to Black" will run at the Gallery from January 14 until March 14th.
Lily has been in Second Life just over three years and has enjoyed taking photographs depicting her experiences and friends in Second Life. She is a part owner and curator of a gallery where more of her work can be found.
Lily called the exhibition “Fade to Black”, asked why she chose this title she answered: ’That's just my play on color photos and going into black and going into black and white”. Many of the photographs have delicate touches of color against the black and white. The colour drawing the eye into the picture.
A stunning picture at the exhibition is titled “Losing my Mind:, depicting a Dominant lying back in the bath and a submissive to the side, poised in movement. The picture bought multiple comments and is one of the most striking pieces in the exhibition.
Throughout the exhibition there can be found butterflies hidden in the detail of the picture. For example in ‘Midnight Express’. Another striking picture that bought much conversation amongst the audience in the opening reception. A train in a snow scene, capturing the mood of the cold, the isolation. Departing from the station behind. I did not notice the butterflies at first it was not until I stood and studied the picture that I saw two butterflies, caught by the photographer at a moment in time.
I asked Lily what the butterflies meant to her. Lily said: “Butterflies are a symbol for me of freedom. Carefree, not tied down, just floating in the air with grace and beauty.” She further explained that the picture “Flowers for my Butterfly”, depicting two people the man giving the flowers to the girl “Butterfly is a nickname of mine in Second Life, se he was just giving me flowers.”
A talented portrait photographer Lily’s exhibition will be at the Roissy Art Gallery until 14th March, 2017.
A girl should be like a Butterfly. Pretty to see, Hard to catch.
