about the collaborators
lynn silverman | the experience of living on three different continents — north america, europe, and australia — has had a profound affect on the way lynn sees the world. in 1975, she left for sydney, australia almost immediately after graduating with a bfa in photography from pratt institute in brooklyn, new york. in 1983, lynn moved to the united kingdom where she taught photography at several art schools and continued to explore the relationship between space and place, and observing how light and time affect the surfaces of everyday objects.
in her current series lifelines, 1994-present, electrical cords depicted in the photograph power the light source that illuminates the space. interior lights, 2019, is lynn’s first foray into animation. working with animated images instead of sequencing a set of still photographs in a book, interior lights is a natural extension of her ongoing desire to discover more nuanced relationships between people and places.
lynn was awarded a 2010 fulbright scholarship to the czech republic. she is currently emeritus professor in photography at the maryland institute college of art in baltimore, maryland.
