Bill Woody features the architectural and historical beauty of the Arcade in his display. He highlights how light, shadows, emptiness and interaction all bring this Dayton gem to life. Bill says of the his Arcade photography, “Urban structures from the last century are wonderful. This begins with “Arches” and flows in and out of Doorways, Hallways, Apartments, Windows, Rooftops…..” The collection on display for Activated Spaces is just a small sample of the over 130 photos Bill has of the Arcade.
