BEYOND THE LENS

         

                  Gillian Lindsay - Duet                   Janet Dwyer - In the Midst

An Exhibition of Photography

by Gillian Lindsay and Janet Dwyer

July 9 - 23

Presenting two fine art photographers: Janet Dwyer, a specialist in photographing works of art, explores a new area of photographic art utilizing a flatbed scanner as an imaging tool. Her latest series uses natural forms, mostly flowers, to create new realities, relationships and surreal combinations. Gillian Lindsay has been investigating abstraction, producing work that is more about texture, colour and composition and less about representational subject matter. For her “Surfaces” series, Gillian sought out industrial sites to shoot rusted metal or weathered wood and distressed paint, artfully documenting how man-made materials, once constructed, begin a never-ending attempt to return to nature.
