BOX 43 Portfolio 1: Early Work, 1972-1983
Artist's statement: The photographs in this portfolio of silver prints were made during Susan Lloyd's graduate school days in the Master of Fine Arts program at the University of Oregon, 1975-1978. Using a 2.25 x 2.25 inch Rolleiflex twin lens reflex camera, a 2.25 x 2.75 inch view camera, and a 4 x 5 inch Calumet view camera, her photographs strive for rich tonality from black to white and utilize the zone system of negative exposure and printing popularized by Ansel Adams and Edward Weston; as well, Lloyd mixed her own print developer, using Edward Weston's Amidol formula. Photographing with a tripod because of the view cameras, Lloyd sought still subjects. She focused always on natural light that revealed a subject's innermost nature. Her interest in a deeper revelation of character in the people she photographed led to her conversion to documentary photography several years later.
