SYMBIOSIS

A collaborative series by Sharon Cannon & Don Saban

​

Symbiosis is an ongoing collaboration between abstract painter Sharon Cannon and photographer Don Saban. Each work begins with one of Cannon’s richly textured oil paintings, into which Saban merges a photographic image. The result is not a simple overlay, but a seamless visual fusion—where painting and photography intertwine and transform each other. The final pieces carry the expressive energy of paint and the clarity of the lens. Together, they form a layered exploration of memory, perception, and presence—work that neither artist could have made alone.

​

Each final work is printed with archival pigment inks on archival paper with larger pieces printed on canvas.
