About this title

Synopsis

Coming from a multi-disciplinary background (writing, sculpture, video), Garnet infuses his photographs with a profound ambiguity, both moral and conceptual. His allegorical studies of familiar yet unidentifiable places transform moments that are usually hidden into image that seem almost commercial in their visual impact. With 36 full-page color plates. Garnet is one of Canadas leading young artists.
