ABOUT

Working with analog film and in-camera multiple exposures, Ryan Kelly creates layered images that blend golf, architecture, nature, cities, and memory into a single frame without digital compositing.
His work has been featured in exhibitions and collaborations throughout the Midwest, including Salonnière DSM and Culture Shock Golf Weekend Chicago.
- Iowa roots and built-world perspective
- Film-first process: layered directly in camera
- Recurring subjects: flowers, golf, architecture, nature, and connection
- Goal: make familiar places feel newly seen
