Barlow Gallery is proud to present My Tacoma, an evocative collection of
environmental portraits by nationally renowned photographer Davis Freeman. This striking
exhibition showcases the vibrant people of Tacoma, captured in the personal spaces that
define them.
Freeman’s work invites viewers to connect with the spirit of Tacoma through twelve
compelling portraits, each telling a unique story. Subjects range from a skilled cobbler and an
award-winning bodybuilder to a dedicated massage therapist, a trailblazing female boxing
instructor, the director of the Grand Cinema’s annual film festival, and other influential figures.
My Tacoma is a celebration of identity, place, and human connection, offering a glimpse into
the lives of those who shape the city’s character.
“Moving to Tacoma eight years ago marked a fresh start for me. The warmth and openness of
this community reignited my passion for portrait photography. Although I had closed my
commercial photography business in Seattle, my love for capturing human stories never
faded. Last summer, I began photographing people I encountered on my journey here, and
from that, the idea for this exhibit was born.”
Davis Freeman is a nationally acclaimed fine art portrait photographer known for his
expressive and masterfully composed images. His award-winning work has been exhibited
internationally and featured in esteemed publications such as Newsweek, People, and
Fortune. Freeman has earned a distinguished reputation for his ability to capture the essence
of his subjects with authenticity and emotional depth.
We invite art enthusiasts and anyone who appreciates the power of photography to join us for
the opening reception on April 4, 2025. This event is free and open to the public.
