As a new member of LIP, what better way of introducing myself and my work to fellow members than to invite you to a joint exhibition 'A Shared Vision' I shall be holding in London with my colleague David Gibson at the Quaker Gallery, London from 24th March to 5th April 1998.
David and I met ten years ago at the Kent Institute of Art and Design, where we were both mature Photography students. Since graduating, we have remained friends and shared an admiration of each other's work as well as a passion for observed 'street' photography as a genre, and we felt it would be fitting to stage an exhibition to celebrate this and show our work side by side.
The eighty or so black and white photographs that will be on show are taken in the documentary humanistic tradition, and give glimpses of life's joys, sorrows, ironies and humour from both here and abroad. Our images document the human condition, mainly in a light-hearted way, but are viewed with an unashamedly surrealistic eye.
