A Tale in Photographs: The Harsh Desert

Harshdesert_3 Photographs by Jayel Aheram will be on display and available for purchase at the Incredible Artist Gallery in Palm Springs, California, from  October 9-26, 2008. Jayel will be at the gallery on the 23rd and 24th to discuss his work as well as introduce new photographs.

"The Harsh Desert" is a tale in photographs. Jayel Aheram presents a collection of things seen, experienced, and lived while serving in the harsh deserts of Iraq and elsewhere. A unique view of events rarely seen in the nightly newscast, a point-of-view of one troop in a war zone and at home, and a glimpse of a vastly different and sometimes beautiful Iraq.

Following on from the tremendous success of his February's hit solo show and his participation in Art4aCure, US marine Jayel Aheram returns with a new show and new incredible photographs. Jayel has recently returned from a tour of duty and will be joining us.

"The Harsh Desert" will be one of the most talked-about shows of the season, so you cannot afford to miss it!

Special Events:

Thu/Fri October 23rd/24th, 7-10pm: Meet the artist.

Sat, October 25th, 7-11pm:  Artist Reception - Meet this incredible photographer as he introduces his stunning new works.

Jayel Aheram is a United States marine based out of Twentynine Palms, California. Still on active duty, he was deployed to Iraq's Al-Anbar province.
