Human nature compels us to observe and ponder our lives. People pause in moments of reflection yet dont necessarily record nor remember them. In this collection of short essays and black and white photographs, surgeon and award-winning photographer Michael Frimer shares, through words and images, a creative exploration and reflection of knowledge, family career and life itself. In BEYOND THE BOX, Frimer shares with the reader his quest for understanding and engagement with many artistic and intellectual pursuits. Frimers singular lens -- a dimension of seeing that informs his perspective -- gives the reader a glimpse into the mind of an extraordinary individual, ultimately encouraging us all to think more deeply.
Michael Frimer was born and raised in Toronto, he attended medical school at the University of Toronto before accepting an internship in general surgery at Vancouver General Hospital, where he became the youngest surgeon in Canada at the time, at age twenty-nine. He continued his surgical practice at Richmond General Hospital. Frimer is an award-winning darkroom and large-format photographer, with an avid curiosity and desire to push the bounds of the expected, often using his images to explore moments captured in time and to observe life as a series of overlapping dimensions that one must look beyond to see lifes bigger picture. He was a proud member of the University of Toronto choir and the Vancouver Cantata Singers. A respected surgeon for over fifty years, Frimer retired from practice in 2018.
