by Susan Lapides (Author), John LeRoux (Introduction by)

New Brunswick's Fundy Coast has always been a place of movement. The massive tides are so integral to the region's identity that their ebb and flow defines the character of the place.

St. George has seen more than its fair share of the ebb and flow of people and prospects -- the typical story of incoming trade and riches, followed by dwindling opportunities. But interest has recently returned to St. George, drawn there by an appreciation for non-urban locales of stark natural beauty, affordability, and down-to-earth people.

Photographer Susan Lapides has been visiting St. George for over twenty-five years. Her deep commitment to capturing the character of place is brilliantly matched by her innate sense of composition and colour. Her work testifies to the fact that the everyday can be mesmerizing if we are lucky enough to have the right interpreter behind the lens. In Lapides's photographs, the dusk cobalt blues of the ocean and sky become symphonic and a windswept cliff with a lighthouse, dog, lacrosse player, and tree appear as powerful and enigmatic as an Edward Hopper painting.

La côte de Fundy a toujours été un lieu de mouvements. Les marées d'une amplitude hors du commun ont marqué l'identité de cette région du Nouveau-Brunswick, dont le caractère s'est forgé au gré des vagues.

Il y en a eu, des vagues, à St. George! De gens, de perspectives et de fortunes. L'histoire typique d'un essor commercial et de richesses qui abondent, puis déclinent. Et voilà que St. George suscite un regain d'intérêt notable, alimenté par la beauté brute des environs de la ville, des prix abordables et le charme des gens sans prétention.

Susan Lapides fréquente St. George depuis plus de vingt-cinq ans, appareil photo à l'oeil. Sa détermination à saisir la personnalité du lieu n'a d'égal que son sens inné de la composition et de la couleur. Ses clichés prouvent que le quotidien peut être fascinant, pour peu que l'interprète derrière la lentille en soit parfaitement conscient. Le bleu cobalt de l'océan et du ciel au crépuscule a une nette tonalité symphonique. Le phare, le chien, le joueur de crosse et l'arbre qui animent une falaise balayée par le vent évoquent autant de présence et de mystère qu'un tableau d'Edward Hopper.
