Brandon Prince is a photographer and photo collage artist born in Eganville, Ontario and is living in Calgary, Alberta. He received his Bachelor of Fine Art in Photography Studies from Ryerson University in 2017.
Prince has a strong connection to the environment. He uses photography to share scenes he encounters. These scenes come from his hikes and his exploration of the world around him. These encompass the beautiful glow of morning sun or fog and clouds dancing and drifting through valleys. In contrast, he also photographs scenes of mountain ranges engulfed in smoke, decaying forests, and other effects of climate change. His hope is that the audience respond to his images and be more conscious in their decisions while enjoying nature.
Prince uses photo collage to expand the limiting ‘canvas’ that the camera’s viewfinder provides. Layering images in specific orders allows him to include more of the scene when shooting at one location. Photo collage also provides the ability to include images from different points in time, multiple perspectives, or entirely different locations. These elements can allow him to portray a wide range of environmental concerns.
