Ansen Seale is an artist living and working in San Antonio, Texas. He received a BA in Journalism, Broadcasting and Film and Studio Art from Trinity University in San Antonio, 1983. His photographs have been exhibited in museums and galleries and have been collected by corporations and institutional and private collectors.
Seale works with a special digital panoramic camera of his own invention. This camera captures a vertical slit of the scene over and over in rapid succession, in effect, swapping the horizontal dimension of the image plane for the dimension of time. Instead of mirroring the world as seen around us, this camera records a hidden reality. The apparent distortions in the images all happen in-camera, as the image is being recorded without the use of digital manipulations. Recently, his work has taken a turn away from the purely photographic with the use of iconic imagery and unconventional media such as his own blood.
