Alyssa Minahan utilizes photographic materials, including unfixed gelatin silver paper and large format negatives, in non-traditional ways to express ideas integral to the medium of photography, specifically its complex relationship to time, space and memory. Minahan has released two publications with Datz Press, an end and a beginning (2022) and NOTES (2019). Her books are held in the collections of The New York Public Library, International Center for Photography Library, Harvard University Houghton Library, Amon Carter Museum of American Art Research Library and Stanford University Library, amongst others. Minahan has exhibited her work at numerous galleries and museums, including the Datz Museum of Art (Gwangju, South Korea), Center for Creative Photography (Tucson, Arizona), Pingyao International Photography Festival (Shanxi, China), Photographic Center Northwest (Seattle, Washington) and Boston University Art Galleries (Boston, Massachusetts). She has been awarded artist residencies at the Penumbra Foundation Workspace Program, Studios at MASS MoCA and Virginia Center for the Creative Arts.
