Dianne Bos does not look at her life linearly. At every opportunity she is open to learning and challenging her perception about the world around her. Speaking with Dianne was electric – she loops ideas and processes together seamlessly with a healthy dose of enthusiasm. Knowing that Dianne defines herself as an Artist and that she does not limit herself to only one method of creation makes understanding her enthusiasm and varied career easier.

In speaking with Dianne, I learnt how creativity is something that can be seen as fluid and fed by connection to the world around you. By staying open to experimentation, questioning and a continued sense of play – we are able to continue to push the limits of our own creativity. And in my opinion, pushing boundaries is the premise of a creative practice so that we can learn, grow and change.

Biography…

Dianne Bos was born in 1956 in Hamilton, Ontario, and grew up in Dundas where she happily explored the Niagara Escarpment. Always interested in art and science, she studied Fine Arts at Mount Allison University. There she developed an interest in photography through sculpture and science, by creating her own cameras. That interest has continued to this day. 

Many of Bos’s recent exhibitions feature handmade cameras, walk-in light installations, and sound pieces. These tools and devices formulate and extend her investigations of journeying, time, and the science of light. This work appeared in the traveling exhibits; Poetics of Light: Pinhole Photography, New Mexico Museum, Seeing, Science Gallery, Dublin Ireland. ‘See the Stars,’ a multi-aperture tent installation created for the ‘Midnight Sun Camera Obscura Festival’ in Dawson City, Yukon and Star Shed at McMaster Museum in Hamilton.
