Photographer, artist and filmmaker LISA POWERS tells extraordinary stories through a history-inspired lens.
Her photographic artwork can be found in private and public collections globally.
Commercially, her photographs and artworks have been featured in several publications such as New York Times magazine, Psychology Today, American Photography and most notably Art&Antiques magazine which fuelled her fascination with Imperial China's Qing Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty ended in 1912 with the exile of the Imperial Family from The Forbidden City and the invasion of China by the Soviet army.
Her current exhibition, FICTIONAL MEMORIES, focuses on re-creating memories of WanRong, the Last Empress of China who was captured by the Soviet guards and died in prison at age 39. Her remains were never found.
The exhibition images were printed on handmade Washi paper.
Lisa Powers has received over 100 prestigious awards for her work, was named The Circle Foundation for the Arts' Photographer of the Year, and was awarded Distinction Honours from the Royal Photographic Society, UK.
