Lydia Harris is a visual artist who combines her fascination of light, form, the natural world, and the world created by humans into photographic images. She is equally interested in capturing what we can and cannot see with the naked eye.
She has recently created three portfolios that exemplify her intrinsic and extrinsic vision. Finding Beauty Through Fear, Take Me With You, and Without Love – Death were created in 2009 and 2010 while attending workshops and the Professional Certificate Program at Maine Media College.
Her current project involves using a view camera with 4”x5” color film to capture the essence of the inhabitants in her worlds.
Additionally, cyanotypes are an ever growing part of her portfolio.
She is currently combining photography and fabric to create unique forms of beauty that capture the atmospheric charge that is all around us.
