- Summary:
- "New Brunswick's Fundy Coast has always been a place of movement. The massive tides are so ubiquitous to the region's identity that their ebb and flow defines the character of the place. St. George has seen more than its fair share of the ebb and flow of people and prospects -- the typical story of incoming trade and riches, followed by dwindling opportunities. But recently a noticeable shift in interest has returned to St. George, fuelled by an appreciation for non-urban locales of stark natural beauty, affordability, and down-to-earth people. Photographer Susan Lapides has been visiting St. George for over twenty-five years. Her deep commitment to capturing the character of place is brilliantly matched by her innate sense of composition and colour. Her work testifies to the fact that the everyday can be mesmerizing if we are lucky enough to have the right interpreter behind the lens. In Lapides's photographs, the dusk cobalt blues of the ocean and sky become symphonic and a windswept cliff with a lighthouse, dog, lacrosse player, and tree appear as powerful and enigmatic as an Edward Hopper painting."-- Provided by publisher.
