Richelle Forsey is an interdisciplinary process-based artist and writer. Through her practice she explores her interests in the materiality and boundaries of photography in the digital age, the culture of nature, and the beauty of entropy.
Richelle works with digital technologies such as drone cameras, scanners and imaging software and analogue processes like cyanotype and mordançage; and her outputs vacillate between interventions, exhibitions, and online presentations. Through her most recent project “desire lines” she examines the intersection of the sublime landscape and the urban environment and makes work exploring the evidence of the consequences of contemporary life.
Forsey’s work has been exhibited frequently in galleries and public spaces throughout Ontario including Gallery Stratford’s Art in the Trees and Gallery 44’s Production Gallery, as well collaboratively in Nuit Blanche (Toronto), the Contact Photography Festival (Toronto) and Contemporary Art Forum Kitchener + Area. Richelle is a member of the URBEX photography collective TLR Club and is the Photography Technician in the School of Fine Art and Music at the University of Guelph.
