New Brunswick's Fundy Coast has always been a place of movement. The massive tides are so integral to the region's identity that their ebb and flow defines the character of the place.

New Brunswick's Fundy Coast has always been a place of movement. The massive tides are so integral to the region's identity that their ebb and flow defines the character of the place. St. George has seen more than its fair share of the ebb and flow of people and prospects -- the typical story of incoming trade and riches, followed by dwindling opportunities. But interest has recently returned to St. George, drawn there by an appreciation for non-urban locales of stark natural beauty, affordability, and down-to-earth people. Photographer Susan Lapides has been visiting St. George for over twenty-five years. Her deep commitment to capturing the character of place is brilliantly matched by her innate sense of composition and colour. Her work testifies to the fact that the everyday can be mesmerizing if we are lucky enough to have the right interpreter behind the lens. In Lapides's photographs, the dusk cobalt blues of the ocean and sky become symphonic and a windswept cliff with a lighthouse, dog, lacrosse player, and tree appear as powerful and enigmatic as an Edward Hopper painting. La c???te de Fundy a toujours ???t??? un lieu de mouvements. Les mar???es d'une amplitude hors du commun ont marqu??? l'identit??? de cette r???gion du Nouveau-Brunswick, dont le caract???re s'est forg??? au gr??? des vagues. Il y en a eu, des vagues, ??? St. George! De gens, de perspectives et de fortunes. L'histoire typique d'un essor commercial et de richesses qui abondent, puis d???clinent. Et voil??? que St. George suscite un regain d'int???r???t notable, aliment??? par la beaut??? brute des environs de la ville, des prix abordables et le charme des gens sans pr???tention. Susan Lapides fr???quente St. George depuis plus de vingt-cinq ans, appareil photo ??? l'oeil. Sa d???termination ??? saisir la personnalit??? du lieu n'a d'???gal que son sens inn??? de la composition et de la couleur. Ses clich???s prouvent que le quotidien peut ???tre fascinant, pour peu que l'interpr???te derri???re la lentille en soit parfaitement conscient. Le bleu cobalt de l'oc???an et du ciel au cr???puscule a une nette tonalit??? symphonique. Le phare, le chien, le joueur de crosse et l'arbre qui animent une falaise balay???e par le vent ???voquent autant de pr???sence et de myst???re qu'un tableau d'Edward Hopper.
