After a career as a New York Fashion Editor, working along side the greats of fashion photography, including Horst, Mario Testino, Patrick Demarchelier, Arthur Elgort, and Bert Stern, ALINE SMITHSON discovered the family Rolleiflex and never looked back. She has exhibited widely including solo shows at the Griffin Museum of Photography, the Oswald Gallery, and Wallspace Gallery in Seattle. Aline has been Gallery Editor for Light Leaks Magazine and curated a number of exhibitions for galleries and on-line magazines. She was nominated for the Excellence in Teaching Award in 2008 and 2009 and the Santa Fe Prize for Photography in 2009 by the Santa Fe Center for Photography.
Smithson's series INSIDE/OUT explores the human experience–motherhood, puberty, childhood, work, aging, death, loss–by using masks to create a more universal image and explore what part of a person comes through the mask, what they can and care to project. Plates To Pixels Interview
