Bill Finger
Photographer Bill Finger walks us through his process and influences, from the Pacific Northwest to late night creature features.
I have always been interested in the idea of the set. The idea of something that is labored over and constructed just be photographed. All in service of the image. Then once it is photographed, it is destroyed - but it will always live again anytime you see the image.
About the Artist
Bill Finger (b. 1961) is a Veazie, Maine-based artist whose work combines sculpture and photography. Handcrafting each element, he constructs and then photographs miniature dioramas. Each image is imbued with a sense of cinematic narrative that reflects twenty years working around movie sets. Bill has exhibited his photographs in both the US and Canada. His work is included in the permanent collections of the George Eastman Museum of Photography and the Santa Barbara Museum of Art. He holds a MFA in Photography from the Rochester Institute of Technology.
