Join us for an opening reception celebrating the photography of Irv Oslin, whose work will be featured at Wild Chicory Gallery throughout February.

The exhibit includes approximately 15 photographs, spanning earlier works alongside several pieces being shown for the first time. Irv’s images reflect a keen eye for everyday moments, quiet details, and the visual poetry often overlooked.

A photographer and writer from rural Richland County, Oslin developed his passion for photography while working as a staff writer for the Times-Gazette from 1997–2013. He continues to write columns for the paper. He has exhibited his work at the Mansfield Art Center, Coburn Gallery, and NEOS Dance Theatre’s M.A.D.E. pop-up art series, among other venues.
