| My earliest experiments
with the photographic process began in a damp Fenland boarding
school studio and after a family move to the USA continued a short
while later in a darkroom-cum-closet in a Manhattan apartment.
After the experience of an English boarding school my voyages
through late 1960's New York street scenes fundamentally altered
my perspective of the world. |
After years of regular
commissioned work which made my own projects take a back seat, I
now have the luxury of more time for my own explorations. Much of
this involves printing work that has languished in negative boxes,
but new projects still figure prominently. "Roads to Rome"
is to a degree a summary of twenty years' work in Italy, but I am
not in the habit of looking back without also giving equal emphasis
to present and future projects which will regularly feature in my
new Gallery pages. I continue to write as well as photograph in the hope of producing a cogent document of my passage through this precious life. Digital images, large format film work, words, video, Polaroid and travels all blend in this endeavour, but apart from book projects, the production of high quality prints is now my priority and the presentation of a handful of arresting images can sometimes be as rewarding as the more exhaustive documentation of the few short decades most of us are fortunate enough to enjoy here. |
