Kathryn M. WildeArtist's StatementBorn in St. Louis, Missouri, with a university background first in art, I went on to receive degrees in biological sciences. I came to photography by way of my desire to capture and share the immense and intricate, often organic images of the landscapes I studied and internalized during field research projects. After nearly thirty years of photographing, my work has expanded in scope and depth, though it is still my preference to capture images in natural lighting, often in radically changing conditions, without manipulation. The result is images of the familiar and outrageous, rich imagery with the elements of design as foundational to my composition. My studio is located in downtown Tucson at Arts District Studios. The images selected for this online portfolio reflect several continuing interests in my work: natural light transformed by circumstances, impressionist combinations of point of view and motion, and the juxtaposition of apparent, but often illusionary, opposites.
