Jane Trotter photographs commonplace, everyday items found around the home and transforms them into eye-catching and dramatic pieces of contemporary abstract art.

Welcome to Abstracted Reality

The Extraordinary Lies Beneath. Abstracted Reality is all about looking below the surface. We all lead fast paced lives where we’re rushing from one thing to the next. When do we get a chance to just ‘be’ – to sit and reflect, to reach for something deeper and more meaningful and really get below the surface of our day to day lives? I was fortunate enough to find that time and opportunity for contemplation through my photography. With a desire to slow down and really look, I learnt to see the extraordinary beauty in my immediate surroundings. My home became my inspiration and my muse. Somehow, the small act of peeking into the unknown and mysterious, of shifting my attention to a layer below the surface, generated a whole new life and awareness.

Artist Statement

Invite a sense of mystery, wonder and intrigue. Imagery which challenges creative boundaries and stimulates the imagination has always been at the forefront of my abstract photography.

Discovering Your Own Photographic Style

Do you have a photograph that, looking back years later, you can say – “That’s the one which kick started everything. That’s the photo which set me on my photographic journey. That was the instant when my eyes were truly opened.” I do. I remember it vividly. I’d been in a quagmire, going nowhere fast […]

Exposed #12: Tulip

Sometimes you hold onto an image and you don’t know why. There’s a little voice in the back of your head saying “you simply can’t delete that!” Even when at first glance, you don’t think the image is particularly good, your gut instinct says “keep this”. I experienced these feelings with the image I transformed […]

In the Mind of a Triptych Judge

I recently had the privilege of being one of three judges in the 2020 Nelson National Triptych Salon, hosted by the Nelson Camera Club of New Zealand. I thoroughly enjoyed looking at the 466 entries and am heartened that the art of creating a triptych is alive and well in this country. It’s often the […]
