Nancy Davenport

Nancy was born in 1965 in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.  She received her bachelor of fine arts degree from York University in Toronto, Canada in 1989.  After graduating, she went to New York and continued her education.  She received her master of fine arts degree from the School of the Visual Arts.  She has been awarded several grants and won the Abigail Cohen Rome Prize in 2009.  Of her works, I enjoyed the "Accident Prone" series the best.  I'm not sure if they are manipulated, but they are interesting. Also, I liked the "Campus" series.  This series contains photographs of buildings and none of the images have people in them.  This series was featured in a 2007 version of Japanese Esquire.
