Delaney Allen is an American photographer whose work investigates self-exploration while surveying and masking varying objectives within photography. Employing the use of self-portraiture, still-life and landscape, Allen constructs an individualized path as the collections intersect in storytelling. He has been exhibited and published nationally and internationally including Foam (Amsterdam) and Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art. He was chosen as one of Time Magazine’s “51 Instagram Photographers To Follow” for 2016, awarded as a Flash Forward Emerging Photographer by the Magenta Foundation in 2013 and was chosen to attend Alec Soth’s Camp For Socially Awkward Storytellers in the same year. His first publication, Between Here And There, was awarded “Best Books Of 2010” by Photo-Eye Magazine. He holds a BFA in media arts from the University of Texas - Arlington ('03) and an MFA in visual studies from Pacific Northwest College of Art (’10). He currently resides on the west coast.
