About

Chris Goodyear grew up in Toronto and Ottawa, where she currently resides.  Her photographic practice begins from a place of curiosity and empathy, motivated by the act of caring.  She is not an objective outsider bearing witness to the world - Chris  makes a genuine connection with her subjects, producing work that is vulnerable, sensitive, and intense.  Using tightly structured compositions, Chris connects to a deeply felt shared experience, humanistic in tone.
