Lisa M. Robinson Snowbound

Five winters long, the young American photographer Lisa M. Robinson took pictures in the snow. Snowbound shows landscapes in which everyday objects – alienated and sunken in snow – "civilize" the natural surroundings. Traces of human existence set accents in the white landscape, delimiting it and often popping up in an amusing or incongruous way. A lonely hammock, a trampoline or a swimming pool are both echoes of the summer past and of personal memories. But Lisa M. Robinson is not interested in showing the obvious; instead, the photographer makes use of the many aggregate states of water – ice, snow, fog, water – as metaphors for life and transience. The photographer was artist in residence at Light Work, Syracuse, N.Y. in 2006, "Curators Choice" at the Houston Center of Photography Membership Exhibition and among the Top 50 Photographers chosen by Critical Mass (Photolucida). Lisa M. Robinsons picture cycle Snowbound was presented in 2006 at several institutions in the USA and Europe.
