A quick post before the end of 2022. Photofusion’s annual SALON exhibition opened in early December and it was a lovely evening - lots of strong work, lots of familiar faces. I was very happy to have had a recent Disrupted Landscapes photograph selected for the show. The exhibition continues until 27 January, so there’s plenty of time to see it if you are in London.
Detail of Tangents and Offshoots
In mid-December I was excited to find out that an image of mine had been selected for the Royal West of England Academy’s Open Photography exhibition. The show is dedicated to contemporary photography and work has to have been produced within the last three years. My Tangents and Offshoots piece that was selected was made in November 2022 - so very recent! Grateful to the six members of the selection panel for the opportunity to show at the RWA again, and looking forward to seeing the other selected work. The show opens to the public 28 January and runs until 1 May 2023.
The year comes to an end with a few different projects that hopefully will be resolved in 2023. For the past couple of months I’ve been writing another short video script and once that feels finished, I’ll begin shooting visual material. I am also expanding Disrupted Landscapes into mixed media and have one work finished, but have plans for a couple more pieces. And, the idea of a book for the series is still present. I have a couple of texts and many images and just need the time to get it to the next stage. Hopefully 2023 will be a year of progress and completion!
