Artist's Fine Art Statement

"Guided by light and line, and recognizing that a photograph is a reflection of a unique, fleeting reality, I strive to bring a quiet, contemplative energy to the frame. Additionally, by focusing on composition and tone — and limiting the use of processing techniques — a further objective is to establish and nurture an intimate affinity with the subject, one that communicates and celebrates the beauty, poignancy and oft-times ironic nature of our chaotic world. Through the art and perspective of photography I seek to bring both understanding and a fine balance to life –  as I experience it."

For 26 years, Birgit Gutsche lived in Vancouver, British Columbia where she raised her two beautiful sons.  She has since lived in small mountain towns along both the Canadian and American Rocky Mountain spine.  Gutsche is currently in Taos County, New Mexico where she lives with her poet husband, Lawrence Gregory.

Gutsche's Fine Art prints are currently available through Sage Fine Art Gallery in Taos, NM and through the contact portal below.
