Recognized as one of Canada’s finest portrait photographers, Spence’s works have been exhibited locally, nationally and internationally and are included in many private, public and corporate collections. Using a wide variety of natural, built, and human forms in her subject matter, Spence’s photographs investigate notions of portraiture, self-portraiture, family, community and identity as they are revealed through the passage of time. In November 2008, The Winnipeg Art Gallery opened a major survey exhibition of her works.
