Kurt Weston
Huntington Beach, CA

Eye of the Beholder Honorable mention, 2 dimensional (photography) “The heart of a photograph for Kurt Weston has always been anchored in an experienced reality. In 1991, Kurt was diagnosed with AIDS and in 1996 became legally blind due to AIDS-related CMV retinitis. His limited visual acuity… permits him to view the world as if it were an impressionist painting. The experience of blindness and living with a life threatening disease are the subjects that form the contextual imagery of his work.
