Photographic Art of Roberta Murray

Fire Fly

The photographic artwork of Roberta creates visions of the world as it is, was, or might someday become. Photographs of manmade and natural elements are often combined to create images with a poetic depth and hidden meaning. These photographs are printed on canvas or fine art papers which enhance the texture and mood of the image. Archival quality prints are available for sale in limited numbers through online sales and locally in Alberta.

Artists Statement

I work mainly with digital imaging to create composite photographs. By the use of light, texture, layers, and form, a tapestry into another world unfolds before me where the distinction between past, present, and future becomes muddied. Hand painted textures and colours may be used to give an image a vintage or surreal presence. A scanner, itself just a large clumsy form of digital camera, is sometimes used to digitize film based images and hand painted textures or colours. Form and colour are often isolated from the landscape through the use of motion or blurring to highlight the delicate beauty that may be seen only in the subconscious. Finally, merging high tech and low tech cameras helps to create the impression an image was taken in a different place and time.
