Dawn Harmer

Artist Bio

Dawn Harmer likes to say she uses her camera to create and manipulate the world around her as she sees it. And its wondrous and beautiful.  

A graduate of Creative and Technical Photography at Humber College in Toronto, Canada, Dawn spent many years working in various fields of photography, including editorial, portrait and fine art.  Of late, she realized fine art photography is where her true passion resides. Her most recent series takes the viewer on a journey under water. The images are a study around personal identity and how one can find themselves hovering somewhere between reality and perception.

The Space Between, was awarded first place at The Art Center in Georgetown, Texas.

She is the recipient of the Mayor’s Choice Award and her work is in the permanent collection of Toronto City Hall. 

Dawn’s photography has been represented by galleries across North America and is in private collections both nationally and internationally.  You can view a list of past shows and current exhibitions on her website.
