Peter Michael Wilson

Featured Artist, Spring 2019

“Peter Michael Wilson is self-taught in analog photography and its various processes. He stands out as an artist who is very determined to succeed within the sphere of photography and among his peers without formal training. His dedication to his practice can be observed through various projects he has been involved in, as well as his constant desire to develop his skills as a visual artist. What makes Wilson an outstanding, significant and intriguing artist is his unique approach to the photographic processes; he utilizes the conceptual and technical capability of the medium by creating interplay between staged situations and the natural environment, often revealing an element of fiction and story-telling to the composition of his subjects and locations. By melding the history and myth associated with a particular place, his work powerfully transports viewers into complicated, yet accessible, worlds.” -Ola Wlusek, Ottawa Art Gallery
