ELA KINOWSKA<\/strong>
\nI was born and raised in Gdynia, Poland. I left Poland in 1987 for Norway where I spent three years. I immigrated to Ottawa (Canada) in 1990, where I have been living with my husband and two children.<\/p>\n

Ever since I discovered the magic of photography, at the age of ten, I have been fascinated by the medium and its power. Photography allows me to communicate messages, which I find important to share with others. My photography has a human focus aiming at documenting challenges of the present, reflecting on the past and bringing hope for the future.<\/p>\n

My favorite medium is a black and white photography analog. I use traditional technique of photo processing including darkroom wet process. My camera equipment includes a Nikon, a Hexar and a Hasselblad.<\/p>\n

In principle, I would describe my work as the continuation of the French school of photography – Andr\u00e9 Kertesz, Cartier-Bresson and others, where the image has a strong emotional impact.<\/p>\n

I have been pursuing photography in an art form for the last 25 years and have exhibited my work in Canada and abroad in both individual and group shows. My photographs are held in private and public collections in Canada, Poland, Mexico,USA, England, Serbia & Montenegro, Greece, Honduras, Spain, Slovenia and Brazil. My photographs have been published in professional magazines (including Photo Select, Photo Life and Photo France.<\/p>\n

I have been awarded the Grand Prix in the International Photography Biennale in Mexico for a Superhero print from the Kanadiana series.

Bill has made presentations to the RA Club\u2019s main meetings and Digital Group meetings, as well as Orleans, Brockville, Kingston and Belleville Camera clubs.<\/p>\n

His prints have been exhibited at various times around Ottawa, most recently in the group show at the City of Ottawa Archives, and he has had a black and white portfolio published in LensWork<\/em> magazine. Those of you who know Bill\u2019s work will appreciate that he enjoys the solitude available in remote locations and that this forms some of his favourite subject material.
