About "A Different View": I decided to take a two month sabbatical in order to reconnect with my photographic roots. I rented the cheapest house on the island with the richest experience: I got to live next door to locals, learned about some hidden spots on the island, picked up some local dialect, and even discovered a new plant with holistic healing properties. I also rediscovered some slumbering techniques and styles that I quickly re-embraced. What resulted is a body of artwork of which I am very proud. "A Different View" features one of the more common flora on the island of St. Barth in the French West Indies seen from an uncommon angle and with an uncommon style. Many of the places that visitors frequent on this island don't include venturing to the many classic Caribbean neighborhoods and seeing the traditional architecture. Details like this wooden fence get overlooked and it's a shame because it's more than some wood; it's a piece of this island's history.

About Deborah Liljegren

Peekskill, NY

Deb grew up with cameras, films, and other photography accouterments being as normal to her as baseballs or dolls were to other kids. She learned to take what was there, what was real — the light, the dark, the mood, the balance, the air — and translate it through the lens. Having a deep affinity for water, she merged these two passions and began creating underwater work. In the water, everything that we know goes away — noise, gravity, perceptions — there is tremendous peace and it allows Deb to create visual enigmas that calm rather than confuse.

Even with this devout love of photography, Deb had always worked in other media, forging more than just images, rather pieces that seem to morph. That which we actually see is an interpretation — the viewer’s — and that changes with each person, lighting, environment, and more.
