Vancouver's Stephen Waddell brings an interest in art history to his work as a photographer, often capturing images that make subtle references to canonic paintings. As the winner of the prestigious $50,000 Scotiabank Photography Award, he exhibited this fall at the Ryerson Image Centre in Toronto and also received a deal with Steidl, one of the world's top photography book publishers. Waddell, represented in Vancouver by the Monte Clark Gallery, discusses his latest work and the publishing process in this video by Mark Mushet. ■
