The Book
Story showcases Maher very unique style as the reader is taken on a visual journey
through the key influences that go into her art-making. The work is divided into
thematic sections that each begin with thoughtful and almost poetic commentary about
her inspiration and thought processes. The result is an engaging and delightful visual journey.
The Photographer
Patty is widely known for hiding or obscuring the faces of her subjects, using only posture, gesture, symbol and colour to convey emotion and story. With a highly recognizable style that is inspired by literature, fairy tales and surrealist paintings, Maher explores the deep and often complex inner worlds of her subjects while at the same time considering notions of personal space, identity and transformation.
