Susan Burnstine is an award winning photographer based in Los Angeles. Her recently published first monograph Within Shadows earned lots of attention and won the Gold Award for PX3 Prix de La Photographie Paris in the Professional Fine Art Books category and a Bronze Overall. Within Shadows was first released in Europe at The Venice Biennale and is published by Charta Editions. The dream like visions Susan creates are entirely made in-camera without any post processing manipulations. To achieve this, Susan created over twenty hand-made film cameras and lenses that are frequently unpredictable and technically challenging. The cameras are primarily made out of plastic, vintage camera parts and random household objects and the single element lenses are molded out of plastic and rubber. Susan's work has been exhibited internationally, is included in many private and public collections and represented by galleries across the world. Please visit Susan's website to see more of her wonderful work.
The interview with Two Way Lens can be found here.
Two Way Lens is a project of interviews with international, contemporary photographers. Their answers to three simple questions about their career paths, presented in this project, should help, inspire and inform emerging photographers. The tips and advice provided will be of value to every young photographer. A new photographer/ interview is added to the project every month. The list of photographers already included is like a "whos who" of the contemporary fine art photography scene. As a reflection of this high value, Two Way Lens will be added to recommanded reading lists as a reference source for photography students at the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design. Two Way Lens is published and edited by the German photographer, Michael Werner.
