EASTON NIGHTS at the SIGAL MUSEUM

Easton Nights at the Sigal Museum is an exhibition in collaboration with Northampton County photographer, Peter Ydeen. It features over seventy photographs from around Northampton County.

Inspired by the poetic works of George Tice, Peter wandered into the surreal and romantic world of Easton’s small hours, where he has become obsessed with the stage like places, which are at once animated, silent and cathartic; all acting as reflections of our uncommon world.
