The Poetry of Light Exhibition, Assiniboine Park Conservatory

I am drawn to photography and poetry as expressions of creative passion. There is harmony between the two genres - images evoking words, and words evoking images. This collection of abstracts and their titles coalesce to represent my interpretation of The Poetry of Light.
The Poetry of Light exhibition explores the subtle and flamboyant nuances of light, reflection and refraction. Though the subjects of these images might be ordinary (fabric, jewellery, glass), they are transformed into dreamscapes by employing the photographic techniques of diffusion and shallow depth-of-field. This imparts a sense of mystery about the identities of the objects within the images.
