Lindsey DeBerry is a freelance graphic designer and photographer and exhibiting visual artist based in upstate New York. Lindsey works with clients on photoshoots (specialized in portraits and products) and graphic design services (including restaurant menus, band posters, film posters, and more). Lindsey also taught the art program at a local Boys’ and Girls’ Club, where she developed lesson plans with an emphasis on art therapy and social justice, implementing a full coursework in fine arts for K-12 students in their after school environment. She also taught an adult continuing education program in photography and photo editing. Additionally, she brought art to the community teaching art therapy classes at a variety of local studios, veterans’ posts, and home studios. Lindsey holds a Bachelors in Fine Arts in Graphic Design and Digital Media from Champlain College and is currently working on her Masters in Fine Arts in Art Education at Adelphi University. Her focus in teaching is on educating at risk populations on the power of art as an outlet for self-expression and a voice to communicate, and helping close the wealth gap through education, making art accessible for all. Lindsey’s collage and photo works have been displayed in galleries such as Arts Center of the Capital Region, Albany Center Gallery, Arlene’s Artist Materials, Second Street Studios, Albany Barn, Joyce Goldstein Gallery, Art on Lark, and more.
I am a visual artist specializing in collage and film photography. I create representational hand cut collages constructed with recycled books and magazines and found objects. Inspired primarily by my travels and memories with loved ones, I take physical pieces with me from experiences I’ve had and adhere these objects to my works. My collage works are my own intimate reflections on grief, love, and transformation. In addition to my collage works, through my film photographs I highlight moments of magic and abstraction in the natural and manmade world. My photographs are taken with the same camera my grandfather used to document his own travels throughout life.
