Local photographer’s work will be on display at Racing Hall of Fame.

Her photography features a sense of healthy strength and telling details that charm the eye.

The artwork of Ginny Southworth will be on display at the Aiken Thoroughbred Racing Hall of Fame and Museum from Thursday through April 26. A reception for Southworth will be held Thursday from 5 to 7 p.m., and the public is invited to attend.

Viewers of the exhibit will find that the images of Southworth’s photography will be observed with equal interest. She has been able to express the supreme power of her subjects through her artwork.

The award-winning photographer has had her photos published in The Blood-Horse, Thoroughbred Record, Associated Press, Sky Magazine, New York Times and Washington Post. A resident of Aiken, Southworth graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in photography from Syracuse University and has a Master of Fine Arts in photography from the University of South Carolina.

“The photographs are absolutely fantastic,” said Lisa Hall, City of Aiken Parks, Recreation and Tourism department and Aiken Thoroughbred Racing Hall of Fame and Museum programs supervisor. “The photographs are all new, and they’re amazing. Anyone who knows her work as the chief photographer at the Aiken Standard will appreciate this exhibit. The last time she had an exhibit at the Hall of Fame was 2003. We’re excited to have her back.”
