Artist Statement for Ellen Fisch
|
|
|
I have been privileged to evoke a rich background of experiences that inspire me and augment my creativity. At an early age, I was intrigued by the ability to translate my ideas through drawing, painting and photography. I soon realized that creating an image was like telling a story: an expression of how I viewed life. I had many stories to tell and, by experimenting with various media, I understood that I could communicate my deepest thoughts and emotions with others through images.
Art is a reflection of that which an artist can visualize. The further I delved into creating art, the more I wanted to become aware of the world and the times in which I lived. As a child, I roamed New York City endlessly to explore the different areas within the vast context of the city. I was passionate about discovering new sights and environs to use as reference material for my art. On one occasion, my parents drove the family to Florida and I became fascinated with the tropical landscape, creating many photographs and drawings of the lush vegetation and deco buildings on Collins Avenue and Lincoln Road. In the 1970’s, I traveled throughout the United States, Canada and Northern Mexico photographing the landscape and cityscape as pure photography art form and as reference for watercolors and oils which I later created in the studio. I replicated the adventure in Europe.
Throughout my life I have created the visions I wanted to share with others. I have had countless exhibits in galleries, museums and institutional spaces in the United States, Europe and Asia that provide me the opportunity to interact with others through my art. My photographs and paintings are included in corporate, government and private collections globally. In the last ten years my concentration has been honed to develop my passion for architecture and history through the art of my photography. The enormous bounty of historical information available through the study and observation of architecture tells the story of societies. By creating art by photographing architecture, I record history and add a new dimension to the past. “We may live without architecture, and worship without her, but we cannot remember without her.”—John Ruskin. My dedication and devotion to my art produces a testimonial to the past, present and future of civilizations.
