Sarah Justine Freel

Montrealer and Vancouverite, I have completed a year of graphic design
at Emily Carr University and a BA in Communications at Simon Fraser University, concentrating on publishing and music. I am now working on my MA.

My main loves are WRITING,
PHOTOGRAPHY and MUSIC.

Photography

We walk by beauty everyday. It is easy to look at a flower and not really see it - to simply label it 'flower' and pass it by. My approach regarding photography is
to reignite the metaphor - by taking a photo of a subject I hope to encourage the viewer to reconsider the categorical description and look at it with a fresh eye. My photographs are not so much indexical as they are intimate and meant to bring out the essence of the subject
in some way: its colour, its form, its intricacy. Extraction of beauty...

I encourage you to have a look at the PHOTO GALLERY - the images are
best in full-screen mode.

Music

The MUSIC page includes essays I have written regarding music production.

Honey, You're Too Sweet for Rock 'n' Roll offers strategies for independent musicians at the Crossroads where
art and commerce meet.

Pinning Down Sound is about GarageBand - recording software produced by Apple - and includes
a review of recording technology
in general.
