This exhibition explored the relationship between the railway, travel and imaging technology. As 19th century technologies that developed concurrently, both photography and the railway forever altered our perception of time and space. The exhibition used various types of imagery to evoke stories of travel, longing, displacement, and the experience of spaces that live on in memory. "Between Here and Then" was exhibited at Blink Gallery in Ottawa in September 2014.
