Vita Lumen Connie McKeon

The inspiration and artist behind Vita Lumen is Connie McKeon.

Connie’s photography portrays a love of capturing incidental moments of connection - to life, people, landscapes and nature and her photographs give people the opportunity to interpret meaning through their own emotion. Connie has a great love for the outdoors and travel, her camera is always by her side. Her subject matter is never contrived- just found and captured. Often imbued with grace and stillness.

With this exhibition ’Illuminate” Connie has tried to captured light in all its myriad forms. Early morning light, candlelight, nightlight and the light within us all. A moment in time, a shared experience, an emotion. Individually felt. Universally acknowledged.

Born in Germany, Connie was the fifth child in a large family which migrated to Australia when she was in her early teens. Her formative years were tough and this has given Connie a huge empathy for others. This is why she donates all the profits from the sale of her photographs to charities that improve the quality of life and opportunities of disadvantaged people. Everyone benefits from Vita Lumen. Vita Lumen is more than just the image. Every piece is layered with meaning and deep contribution at all levels. A source of inspiration to you and many others.
