Musician and photographer Tess Roby (beforehand featured right here) moved from Toronto to Montreal in 2011. Since then, she has explored her environment along with her digital camera, abstracting her day-to-day actions and “discovering sublimity within the commonplace and delicately revealing its magnificence.” Revealed in 2020 by KGP, “Montreal” consists of 31 pictures spanning the primary 9 years of her life in Montreal, from the week she moved, to the months main as much as the guide’s launch.
Roby holds a BFA in pictures from Concordia College, and has held two solo exhibitions of her work. She has been printed in VICE, NR Journal, and by Pomegranate Press. Her sophomore album, Concepts of Area, was launched final month on her newly launched file label, SSURROUNDSS.
