"In Pull of Gravity both Elijah Gowin and Emmet Gowin deal the viewer a mysterious and contrary hand, yet they do so in very different ways," says Paula Tognarelli, executive director of the Griffin Museum of Photography. "We are captivated by the dual and opposing nature of the photographs as we look for the meaning in what we are seeing. At the same time, father and son utilize scale as a means of conveying the fragile quality of our lives and the world we inhabit."
