Along with her expansive use of the photographic medium, these concerns make Lake an exemplary model for contemporary artists. Combining a deep knowledge of photographic conventions with strong personal convictions, she produces work that both inspires and provokes thought. Lake is a skilled and pioneering adapter of technology, which she employs to position photography as an art form and a vehicle of metaphor. In Reduced Performing (2008) she utilized the most sophisticated scanning technology available to scan the entire length of her body. At times explicitly political and at others quietly empowering, her photography is always rooted in a critical awareness of the self. The questions Lake raises are as relevant now, in the superficial age of social media, as ever before. 600 10 $a Lake, Suzy, $d 1947- $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Photography, Artistic $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Subjectivity in art $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Femininity in art $v Exhibitions. 700 1 $a Anderson, Shannon. 710 2 $a Scotiabank. 710 2 $a Ryerson Image Centre (Toronto, Ont.) 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191210030010.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DA6B44B0EA0A11E7B6F5700597128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
