One of the world’s best-known contemporary Canadian photographers, Wall has been described as “a painter of modern life.” His carefully planned compositions often have a mysterious look. He skilfully
combines a documentary approach with a great sense of place, which adds a strong narrative dimension to his work as a whole.
