Tim Brennan, Photographs

The Blue Building is pleased to have hosted Tim Brennan, Photographs. A full-career survey of the photography of Tim Brennan.

Tim Brennan is from Inverness, Cape Breton. He graduated from high school there and later graduated from NSCAD with a BFA and from York University with an MFA. He taught photography at NSCAD for more than fifteen years. His first photograph was of a train down at the railway station in Inverness. He stole his mother’s camera for the shot. He has been looking for that picture ever since.

Photographs surveys the full length of Brennan career. From early works that see Brennan exploring his environment and developing his craft on Cape Breton Island, up to contemporary works, where Brennan’s restless experimentation and life-long commitment to film photography results in images that painterly, richly textured and emotionally impactful.
