Laurie Toby Edison:<\/h2>\n

I walk & live in the shadow of the pandemic while photographing Pandemic Shadows<\/a><\/em> everywhere. I make beauty in hard times. I started this in the lockdown and continued until very recently. It\u2019s just about finished now. I\u2019ve been a photographer since my late 40s. My latest project started in the lockdown looking for things to photograph. It\u2019s my first project that didn\u2019t involve model cooperation. It\u2019s been very revelatory as a photographic experience.<\/p>\n

My books of photographs are “Women En Large: Images of Fat Nudes<\/em>” and “Familiar Men: A Book of Nudes<\/em>” (all edited by Debbie Notkin). My photographs have been exhibited in many cities, including New York, Tokyo, Kyoto, Toronto, Boston, London, Shanghai, Seoul and San Francisco. My solo exhibition \u201cMeditations on the Body\u201d at the National Museum of Art in Osaka featured 100 photographs from all three of my photographic suites. My latest completed project is “Women of Japan”, clothed portraits of women from many cultures and backgrounds.<\/p>\n

I most recently had Pandemic Shadows<\/em> photos exhibited in “Light & Shadow,” at the Valid World Hall Gallery in Barcelona. Photographs from other projects in their permanent collection were featured in “Crossing Borders,” the inaugural show of Gallery Terra-S at Kyoto Seika University.<\/p>\n

I’m an activist on body image and other social justice issues. I blog with Debbie Notkin at Body Impolitic<\/a>, talking about body image, photography, art and related issues.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
