| With Florida rapidly becoming urbanized—and its natural character disappearing—local graphic designer Carlos Plaza decided to stop the clock. He opened the Native Florida Gallery in summer of 2002 on US 1 in Delray Beach—in the same 1923 house that housed his graphic design studio—to showcase Florida by Florida photographers and artists—before it’s gone. Today the gallery's focus is exclusively on online sales through their website www.nativeflorida.com or on their store on eBay. Please see links bellow. “I first got interested in the idea after I met Clyde Butcher Jeff Ripple and Oscar Thompson—people working out of the Big Cypress swamp who are chronicling the Everglades and creating a heightened awareness of the importance of our native landscape,” Plaza said. “Then one thing led to another and I am discovering a whole network of incredibly talented Florida artists who are photographing different aspects of the state, from Apalachicola Bay to the Fakahatchee Strand. The styles are different, but they seem to share a vision for Florida’s natural character, its fragility.” Plaza, an Italian citizen, who has lived in Florida for the past two decades, believes he has a natural affinity for Florida and the photographic arts. A graphic designer by trade who has had a lifelong interest in photography, one of the many things he had in common with his late father, who was a photojournalist in the early years of his professional life.
