Metamorphosis – Mixed Media

I have never had a photographer like Colin Finlay on this show. I have read his bio so many times today, and yet I am having trouble writing this post because describing him is not easy. Colin Finlay is one of the foremost documentary photographers and filmmakers in the world. He has has chronicled the human condition with compassion, empathy, and dignity. He has covered war and conflict, disappearing traditions, the environment in both its glory and its devastation, genocide, famine, religious pilgrimage and global cultures. He has circled the globe twenty-seven times, reaching as far as Antarctica, the Arctic Circle and 95 incredible countries in-between. As far as recognition, Colin has been blessed with many awards and accolades, from Tiffany Crystal Eagles, and Emmy nods to a Knighthood. As you would expect, when someone is as talented as Colin in one area of creativity they are also gifted in other areas. Colin Finlay is also a multi-instrumental musician, and he uses his photography to create amazing mixed media art pieces. That’s where we travel today. Join photographer and artist Colin Finlay and me as we discuss his amazing career, and how he made this amazing image, on this episode of Behind the Shot.
