Marie Shannon has made intimate thoughtful works for over thirty years, with photography as her principal medium. Critically acclaimed and producing new work very slowly, Shannon’s quiet works speak to the narrative or poetic resonance of the single object. Comparatively small in scale and exemplary in technique, her works carry remarkable emotional density and weight, and are satisfying over time. Dollars posits a multitude of used US one dollar bills, almost an icon in currency terms, that carry personal meaning for Shannon, and evokes a multiplicity of readings dependent on the viewer’s nuanced stance.
