Gallery-wide show on the topic of the NYC Subways. My show is called ‘Transit Transitions’.

From the artist statement: “I was drawn to NYC by the fast pace of a city always in motion. I love riding the subways. My work is about motion; trains and people coming and going are good subjects for my overlapping panorama technique. Using a plastic camera, the long images are created by only partially advancing the film; the overlapping occurs in the film itself. These mostly unplanned juxtapositions capture my experience and at the same time have an identity all their own.”

People Walking – Blurb Book: May 14, 2013

Heh, everyone…. this is my first attempt at a book. Now that I’m shooting digitally and working with normal proportioned images such things are possible! I just quickly put it together, but maybe you will get an idea of what I’m up to these days.

All the pictures were shot in April 2013.

Below is the live Blurb website. The book can be viewed and purchased from this site.

Solo Show

“My work is always about motion; these images are part of an ongoing series on the topic of People Walking. Shot at various busy street corners in New York City, I like to record the swirl of activity around me. The vantage point is low; I am often sitting on the ground with a small tripod and rapidly capturing people as they walk by.”

I will be exhibiting 10 pieces from the New York Walking series. Thanks to Paul Stetzer and Norman Borden for these pictures of the reception.

Light Leaks Magazine: May 2007

Profiled in Light Leaks Magazine: Showcase: Susan Bowen, Issue 6, May 2007, pages 44-47.

“Light Leaks Magazine is dedicated to photographers who love their Dianas, Holga’s, Pinholes, Polaroids, and many other cameras of lo-fi photography.”

Light Leaks was a wonderful low-budget publication dedicated to images created by toy/low-tech cameras and the cameras who made them. Issue 19 was sadly the last issue.

New Website is Released: March 4, 2014

After months of work I just pulled the switch to release this new WordPress-based website on my photography. I’m sure I will continue tinkering, but I think it is ready enough for prime time.

All the content related to exhibitions, public art commissions, awards, and the like are now in a blog format. This allows scrolling easily through years worth of content. All the content here existed on the old site but now is much more accessible.

The focus is on my more recent work on various forms of People Walking, but all the Holga work is available as well.

So poke around and let me know if you find any issues. Thanks!
