Donna Francis has been exploring photography for 50 years. Her work encompasses a wide range of subjects and techniques. She has used conventional methods of photographing such as (analogue) equipment, pinhole, or digital cameras. Despite the limitations of the pinhole camera, she has found ways to push the boundaries of the medium. Experimenting with different printing techniques, such as cyanotypes, the Van Dyke Brown method, and giclee printing on handmade papers. With the advent of technology catching up to Donna, she is able to print on textiles, thus allowing to create large-scale images the audience can walk around, and between. Creating an environment that is both ethereal and grounded in reality. She is always seeking to push the boundaries of the medium and create images that challenge and inspire. Above all, her work is about celebrating the endless possibilities of photography as an art form. She believes that every image has the potential to be a work of art and that every moment has the potential to be captured in a way that is both meaningful and beautiful. Through her photography, she hopes to share her love of the medium with others, and to inspire them to explore their own creative potential.
