Light in Darkness
Light in Darkness has been extended until 7 July
“You don't make a photograph just with a camera. You bring to the act
of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read,
the music you have heard, the people you have loved.” - Ansel Adams
This sums up photography and fine art printing for me – you can see my
personality and life experiences in my photographs and prints. I lay
myself bare for all to see, it is a deeply personal, humbling, terrifying and an exhilarating undertaking. Without light there is darkness, but every now
and then, if you look closely, there is Light in Darkness – hope in despair.
A Piano of Tasmania
I’ve been photographing the musician Kelvin Smith, who is “A Piano of Tasmania”, along with videographer Jeremy Button, for a couple of years now. Whenever these guys get together the artistry is magical. Jeremy had the idea for me to capture behind the scenes images, and I jumped at the opportunity. It’s truly a unique perspective, one that I feel fortunate to observe and document. Jeremy’s videos of Kelvin playing are stunning and can be found at https://www.facebook.com/APianoofTasmania/ page, along with my still shots.
After the sudden death of my darling sister Nicole, COVID lockdown and
the severe impact it had on all of us, shooting these guys was the “Light in
Darkness” that I needed.
