Deborah Martin
Deborah Martin (born June 9, 1961) is a contemporary American visual artist, fine art photographer and curator. Her artistic work examines the complexities of individual experience particularly in it's relation to home, isolation and memory. Much of her practice emerges in collaborative conversation with writers and poets, taking form through exhibitions and publications.

In her continued exploration of American landscapes, Martin has turned her attention to two landmark "saline" sites in the United States known for their distinctive inhabitants, nontraditional social ecology, and unique architecture: the Salton Sea 〔Japenga, Ann. ("The New Sublime" ) Palm Springs Life Magazine, June 2011 pp. 22–25. Retrieved 2011-07-01.〕 and the Outer Cape area of Cape Cod. "Home on the Strange: In Search of the Salton Sea" is based on Polaroids taken over a period of several years, depicting various aspects of the reality of life on the Salton Sea. In this series, Martin examines the eerie atmosphere centered on the Salton Sea, a bizarre body of water accidentally created by an engineering fiasco in the early twentieth century when the Colorado River was diverted spilling the river's water over a lowland directly on the site of the San Andreas Fault.〔Busa, Christopher. ("Deborah Martin Uncanny Luminosity" ) Provincetown Arts 2014/15, Vol. 29, pp.75-77. Retrieved 2014-12-11.〕 The "Narrow Lands" is a transdisciplinary project documenting the architectural geography of history and time along the Outer Cape. Martin’s paintings that feature structures on the Outer Cape have justly warranted comparisons to Edward Hopper’s. Like Hopper’s paintings, Martin’s interpretations provide neither a critical nor celebratory stance. Unlike Hopper, however, Martin’s application of paint is undetectable.〔Brown, Susan Rand.("A Hushed Reverence: Deborah Martin Shows Provincetown in Magical Light" ) The Provincetown Banner, July 18, 2013 p. 27.

Martin's series "Back of Beyond" features scenes of the unincorporated town of Wonder Valley, located in Southern California’s Mojave Desert. The imprint of America is more than apparent in this group of landscapes that feature large, gas guzzling vehicles from the 1970’s and 80’s. Bleached bare from years of unprotected exposure underneath the sun’s aggressive blaze, Martin’s vintage sedans, vans, and convertibles don’t only evoke an air of abandonment, but they chronicle that which has been forgotten in exchange for what our commercially driven society considers worthy. Martin’s newest series,''The Slabs: The Last Free Place in America,'' gives voice to the nomadic cultures that drift in and out of Slab City. While the inhabitants of Slab City are noticeably absent from Martin’s work, her paintings radiate with an underling pulse emblematic of the community’s soul. Such is achieved through the artist’s ongoing investigation of contrasting themes that touch upon isolation as well as community.〔
