Artist Bio

Nancy Breslin is a fine art photographer whose work focuses on a variety of subjects, including amusement parks and work with a pinhole camera. She has photographed carousels, Ferris wheels and other rides at festivals and amusement parks in the US, England, France and Australia. A set of these images taken in Paris was shown at the Delaware Division of the Arts' Mezzanine Gallery in March 2002, along with images from the Pere Lachaise Cemetery.

Her most recent work is a series of pinhole images taken during meals, usually in restaurants. The long exposure time used for pinhole photography results in an interesting blurring of people, so the images capture the ritual of mealtime rather than looking like portraits of the participants. She has also been working with photographic images on fabric, including cyanotype and archival pigment prints on silk.
