Lifescapes: Life Through the Lens

Photography records moments in time…special moments; everyday moments; those that define how we live, the events we mark, the people and places around us, where our focus lies.  Some images are unique; others are recurring; some reflect the special time in which we live; others are universal. They tell us not only about the image being captured but about the photographer behind the lens: The photographs in this exhibition capture the photographers’ unique perspectives of life in the moment from isolation to togetherness; from urban to pastoral; from reality to abstraction. It’s all Lifescapes.

CONTACT is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to celebrating and fostering the art and profession of photography with an annual Festival in May throughout Toronto and year-round programming in the CONTACT Gallery. CONTACT embraces an inclusive and accessible approach to the medium, and cultivates collaborations with and among artists, curators, institutions, and organizations.

Each year CONTACT showcases lens-based projects by Canadian and international artists. The Festival’s Core Exhibitions are comprised of collaborations with major museums, leading galleries, and artist-run centres, as well as site-specific public art projects. These are cultivated through partnerships and commissions, and frame the cultural, social, and political events of our times.
