Suzanne Williamson:

"I am a fine art photographer creating images and installations of the landscape that reveal how it has been altered, celebrated, or degraded through human intervention. For years, I have been creating image sequences that are or seem to be seconds apart. I have photographed at sunrise near the water’s edge, interested in expanding our notions of time and perception. I create composite works that combine images into elusive, dream-like stories. In 2022 the Florida Museum of Photographic Arts, Tampa, mounted my solo exhibition, The Language of Light. My photographs have been exhibited in juried group shows in such venues as Griffin Museum, SE Center for Photography, Center for Fine Art Photography, and Colorado Photographic Arts Center. My photographs are in the collections of Bibliothèque Nationale; Museum of Fine Arts, Houston; and HCC Art Galleries among others. I am a current member of the New York Artist's Circle based in New York City.

I studied anthropology and photography at SUNY College at Purchase, and photography at ICP- International Center of Photography. I learned to appreciate photography's power to persuade while managing a private photography collection in New York, which was later donated to the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston as The Allan Chasanoff Collection. I have been Photo Editor of ARTnews magazine, and a member of the curatorial team at the Tampa Museum of Art. I was also a member of the volunteer collective, Here is New York, that formed the 9/11 photography exhibit in downtown New York City, and produced the exhibit book. 

My latest work is a reflection of the turbulence which has increased globally since the days of the pandemic. We witness the evidence of climate change and environmental degradation, along with social, political, and environmental stresses that feed our inaction as we drift above the waters of denial. I combine my photographs with elements of sky, earth, and water from the shorelines of Florida. Working with natural and augmented colors, images of surging water, suns and cloud streaks, tv’s, birds, and flowers, I find a terrible beauty in these moments as I combine them into landscapes of disruption. The images express hardened lines and inner turmoil that so many of us feel in our uncertainty about life in the present day. I have sent you three works/images which contain pictures in a vertical narrative from one of these series: either Social Disruption (UNDERTOW) or Climate Catastrophe (CLIMATE DRIFT.)"
