The exhibition Focus Finder features photographs of Lake Huron that are visually interrupted by the viewfinders of cameras. Artist Susan Dobson discusses how her work aims to operate not just as transcription, but also as metaphor and poetry, framed within the anxiety of the present moment.
Susan Dobson has been photographing urban and rural landscapes for more than twenty years, and in recent years has expressly become interested in the ontological, technological, and material aspects of the photographic medium. Dobson’s photographs have been exhibited internationally at galleries and festivals, including CONTACT (Toronto, Canada), Fotoseptiembre (Mexico City, Mexico), Le Mois de la Photo à Montréal (Montreal, Canada), Images Festival (Vevey, Switzerland), Bitume/Bitumen (Brussels, Belgium), and Fotonoviembre (Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Spain). Dobson’s photographs can be found in numerous collections across the world, including in Canada (National Gallery of Canada, Oakville Galleries, Toronto Archives, Art Gallery of Windsor); Switzerland (Musée suisse de l’appareil photographique); Spain (Tenerife Espacio de las Artes); and the United States (Portland Art Museum).
