The pandemic forced me to find new ways to make my art. Unable to rely on travel to fuel my art, my distances were measured in steps, not kilometers. Like many, I relied on local outings, and the local gardens of my neighbourhood became my new muse. “Iris on the Side” marries the influences of Georgia O’Keeffe and Judy Chicago to the graphic nature of hard edge abstracts. This iris was abstracted down into its basic elements of colour & shape.
Lori Ryerson is a Toronto-based contemporary art photographer. In 2010 she returned to school (Humber College) to learn about digital photography and processes. In 2016, after 30 years in the workforce, she left the corporate world of Communications and Association Management to become a full-time artist. She has exhibited in a wide variety of shows, from solo outings to community group shows, to art fairs in Canada and the US, and her work can be found in private and corporate collections on both sides of that border. She is an elected member of both the Ontario Society of Artists, and the Society of Canadian Artists.
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
I am especially fond of travel and nature photography, but inspiration can strike anywhere. Most of my compositions take place out of doors, involving natural structures, water or plant life. I am always on the lookout for what I call “mystery in the mundane”; commonplace objects or locations where I can employ various techniques to create new perspectives and different views. Recently, I have been increasing my exploration of abstract interpretations of nature, employing techniques such as intentional camera movement and multiple exposures, along with digitally manipulating photographs I have produced.
