EASTHAM, MA –(April 1, 2026) – The Eastham Public Library’s Turner Gallery is the
venue for an exhibition of photographs by Thomas D. Faulkner, a nationally-exhibited
photographer and sculptor, as well a retired Episcopal priest. The exhibition, “Eternity,”
will open on April 2, 2026, and run through April 30, 2026, during Library hours. A
reception and Artist’s Talk will be held on Thursday, April 16 th from 4 – 6 pm in the
Turner Gallery.

As a photographer, Faulkner combines images with text in his conceptual work and
uses fine art photography to examine off-centered cultural realities and issues of social
justice. His work has been reviewed in national publications including ArtForum, Art in
America, New Art Examiner, the New York Times and the Boston Herald.

About the Work
Whether in a moment of awe, the flight of our imagination or in response to an
inexplicable tragedy, we find ourselves pondering eternity. What is it? Who will or won’t
be there? How do we get there or perhaps we have no say in the matter? Is there
actually a there, there?

With nine photographs as varied as a roadside memorial, an airport hallway and a
soaring Italian church, we are called to consider these very human questions. The artist
hopes they might evoke more questions and conversation.
