This month I was featured on A Photographic Life on The United Nations of Photography podcast, talking about what photography means to me (in just 5 minutes). I spoke about moving image vs photography and went back in time to talk about some very early work.
Dr Grant Scott founded the United Nations of Photography in 2012. He’s featured some really interesting photographers on his podcast over the years which you can scroll through and listen to - all with their personal view on photography. I’m grateful to have been invited to contribute.
In early April I heard that a series of still images from my video, Vanishing, are being featured in the Spring issue of Artists Responding To Magazine. The Quarterly Magazine, started by Polly Bates in 2020, features international artist-led projects responding to environmental, political and social issues, as well as UK exhibition highlights and reviews.
I’ve also received some additional good news about Vanishing, which hopefully I can share next month.
In mid-April I went to the Hastings Rocks International Film Festival where my short, experimental film, Vanishing was part of the Experimental Cinema Official Selection. I was very happy to be included in the programme as I had enjoyed being a part of the 2023 Festival with my short film, Chalk. I thought all of the films in the Experimental Screening at Hypha Studios were interesting and especially enjoyed Trish Morrissey’s film Eupnea which deservedly won the award for Best Experimental Film, and Picturing Wonderland by Alfie Elms.
