Lisa Bliss Chin is a self-taught photographer and has been taking photos since she was
11 years old. Her first image-making tool was a Kodak 110 camera that she mostly used to
take pictures of her dog dressed in funny outfits. Since then, Lisa has graduated to
more grown up (read: expensive) equipment and enjoys photographing people and situations on the sly.
Growing up in subrural upstate new york and then moving to nyc after college was a great shock and something she still finds
herself adjusting to. There is always a longing for what used to be, the home of her youth, the creek with the tadpoles.
Lisa's photography attempts to seek out the little bits of country that can seep into the urban landscape and vice versa.
The balance to be found in combining the fragments of the slow-paced rural town and the quick-stepping fancified city are
what she hopes to express through her photos. It's also how she hopes to achieve equilibrium in her life.
Lisa doesn't usually talk in third person but it's something she is willing to do just this once.
