BIO & CV
Susie Forrester's work is emotional and visceral. She comes to her photography from a deeply personal perspective. While other photographers find comfort using the camera as a buffer between themselves and their subject matter, Forrester prefers to use the camera as a link to create a relationship with her subject. Whether it is a portrait, a landscape or man-made object, there is a portal of connection, that resonates in a liminal space of possibility and transformation.
Her curiosity about the world around her has led her to share her work through teaching, workshops and exhibitions. She is a frequent contributor to The Sun magazine.
She has also been the master printer, and current assistant archivist, for photographer Larry Fink.
