More about Betsy Green

Betsy is an artist working with a camera. Examining her work from that perspective is essential. Her photographic, yet dissonant images carry distinctly the qualities of the lens and camera housing as if it were a theater for the viewer. The trees and landscapes, for which she has such affection, branch out to the edges of the film as if projected on the wall like a camera obscura. Her photographs are an invitation to take a ride in her nineteenth-century field camera and experience the magical sublime of nature as perceived by the artist. Betsy has experimented with analog film and traveled the world for more than thirty-years in search of her extraordinary subjects and processes.
