Barbara Cole's artwork is collected by public and private
institutions and has been exhibited worldwide, including at the
Canadian embassies in Washington, D.C. and Tokyo, Japan. Cole, who
is often referred to as an inventor, uses a raw, hands-on
photographic process that is consistent with her belief that the
possibilities of photography are virtually limitless. Since the
early 1980s, she has channelled her appreciation for the camera
itself. She is dedicated to the history of photography by deviating
from automatic cameras and techniques. Barbara Cole uses
photography to play with notions of time, place, and identity. In
her numerous series, Cole often asks the questions: how do you
paint an image of timelessness? How do you capture the feeling of
weightlessness in an image? Her ethereal photography takes on a
quintessential painterly quality, with the transformation of
figures a predominant theme in her work. Over the past 30 years,
although she works with traditional photographic means, Cole's
approach and aesthetic has become closer to that of a painter. The
artist's work focuses on a powerful narrative, some with external
motifs and others with intense figure transformations that alone
tell the story. Cole's background in fashion and fashion editorial
naturally leads to a process that channels her experience into
creating a particular atmosphere with costumes and backdrops. Text
in English and German.
