Travers Charron

I was born in New Bedford Massachusetts, I have lived in New England most of my life, with some time in El Paso Texas, working in Juarez Mexico. I’ve had the opportunity to travel throughout Ireland, as well as much of the US. I find the diversity of cultures and beliefs fascinating. I like to photograph the human relationship with mortality and our creations. Through my photography I intend to show the compelling relationship with what we create, what transcends us and how things change with time. I also have a fascination with the perspective of impermanence, time and change.

You can say photography is in my genes. My father was an avid self-taught photographer and I was in his darkroom before I could walk. Developing film the traditional way was fascinating to me. I was taught composition, lighting and contrast before I could read. My dad continues to be with me in spirit every time I hold my camera. I studied art history at the University of Massachusetts and I continue to be captivated by the cultures, history and myriad of artistic expressions throughout the world.
