Clift Seferlis
I am a native Washingtonian. After returning from college ten years ago I started to assist my father with the ongoing restoration work at the Smithsonian Castle on the Mall. I am in charge of that operation today, and I would not trade that job for anything. I have been taking photos since high school, and find it very rewarding. If I am not working on restoring architecture I am writing about it; if I am not writing about it I am photographing it. Architecture has dominated my images for decades, and always will. Last year was my first solo exhibition at the Stewart Mott House on Capitol Hill titled "Creatures, Places, and Things" . I have been fortunate enough to have had work published in a small number of magazines and publications, and most recently at the headquarters of the Chevy Chase Bank in Bethesda, MD. Approximately 50 of my images have become part of that operation's permanant corporate art collection.
