Marianne Owens artist statement:
As a fine art photographer, I capture the surprises in nature and architecture, that are often familiar to our everyday lives.
My photographs travel through urban and rural landscapes of objects that are lost because people frequently stop seeing them. They miss how interesting and beautiful they are. It is my passion to share these subjects with a fresh perspective, to engage the interest and imagination of the viewer.
My recent artwork is inspired by Surrealism because of its power to invite each of us to create our own story from the images we see. Each image is its own story depending on the viewer.
As a landscape and found-object photographer, I play with the possibility of creating new meaning through combined images.
My fine art practice also involves creating community art programs that bring the experience of what art can be. Working with underserved and marginalized youth, who through economic or social circumstance rarely have access to participate in the Arts. Community art gives youth new opportunities for exploration, creativity, self-expression and personal growth.
Art is for us all.
