Barbara Tyroler is a photographic image-maker producing collaborative multi-media art projects that address social and cultural issues. As an educator she blends fine art and humanitarian work, which is central to her art practice. As a seasoned professional, Barbara’s art and teachings explore how the lens inspires the journey, how the photographic image evokes feeling and conveys meaning, creating and recreating stories and memories beyond the frame. Her photography is conceived through the synthesis of light, imagination, and technology.
Artist Statement
As a fine art portrait artist and educator who utilizes pools and water for her backdrops, she is specifically interested in community outreach. The photographic series of portraiture created in pools and lakes throughout the east coast, explores how and why we immerse our bodies in water. The work is collaboratively produced with family and friends, students and colleagues, business clients, and strangers, to record gesture and the human figure, light, pattern, and reflective design. Beneath the surface are the intimate stories she encounters.
A huge thanks to UBS Financial Group Services for sponsoring this project!
