Tim Smith
About
Manitoba-based photographer Tim Smith has spent sixteen years documenting life on the prairies including fourteen years photographing the Hutterites; insular Anabaptists who live communally on colonies in Canada and the United States. His work is among the broadest and most extensive visual documentation of their culture ever produced.
Children play tag under a rainbow after showers at Spring Valley Hutterite Colony. From Tim Smith's ongoing 14-year-long documentation of Hutterite culture in Canada. The image came about through a mix of getting to know Hutterite culture, patience, and a stroke of luck.

En tant que photographe exerçant au Manitoba, Tim Smith a passé seize ans à documenter la vie dans les Prairies, dont quatorze années passées à photographier les huttérites, des anabaptistes vivant en communauté fermée dans des colonies au Canada et aux États-Unis. Son travail compte parmi les documentations visuelles les plus étendues et les plus complètes jamais produites sur leur culture.
Des enfants jouent à la tague sous un arc-en-ciel après des averses dans la colonie huttérite de Spring Valley. Extrait de la documentation de Smith sur la culture huttérite au Canada, qui dure depuis 14 ans. L’image est née d’une combinaison de connaissance de la culture huttérite, de patience et d’un coup de chance.
