Meganelizabeth Diamond
Camp Morton, Manitoba, Canada

STATEMENT

Meganelizabeth’s practise utilizes both the analog and the digital in alternative modes of image capturing. Drawn to tactile processes and always aware of her photographic roots, her work uses both found images and self created images from a personal junk-drawer archive she pulls from. Her collage work often results in day-dreamy fantasy places that celebrate shape and texture of the natural world.
