Ceramic Wall Tiles

A Photoshoot for the Ceramic Artist Katie Bonham.

Katie has consistently drawn influence from the natural world looking particularly at the forms, colour and surface textures of plants, seeds and marine creatures. Her work is predominantly thrown on the wheel and surface detail is carefully added later. “I try to create unique pieces that provoke the curiosity to touch and hold.”

If you are interested in seeing more of her work please visit her website at: www.katiebonham.co.uk or see my Location Shoot for Katie Bonham

Artwork photography for Michelle Carlton Smith

Paintings by the abstract artist Michele Carlton Smith.

She tells us about the work:

"By layering paper, pigment and paint onto canvas with a special resin, I lay life's fragilities, one on top of the other in order to obtain a strong finish.

Paper for me has a skin-like quality, but paradoxically it is in this layering that I build the strength that allows us to cope with whatever life and its inevitabilities throws at us.

While my paintings are about human fragility, I draw my inspiration from nature and landscape from my studio in Kent. The landscapes elongate themselves into a vast, special, abstract composition."

A photoshoot as a photographer for Valency Engine of the old EMI building as it is being gutted...

These images were taken for the Architects of the refit, however as discussed with them, the shoot went not so much to a brief but in a way more in keeping with much of my own work.

In being given the opportunity to photograph these spaces in my own style and without a commercial brief, It seems there may be the possibility of a commercial / artwork cross-over.....?

Now there is something to think about..

RotoBowling!

Photography for the Designer Jorge Manes: My own Factory.

designer jorge manes aimed to inject some fun into the automated nature of mass-production with his project ‘my own factory’. the project was inspired by manes’ recent trip to china, where he saw how mechanized factory work was. he explains, ‘factories are turned into places where people lose their own identities; the boundaries between machines and humans are no longer clear’. this gave birth to ‘my own factory’, ‘a conceptual project that questions the boundaries between playing and working’. the idea uses rotational moulds placed inside metal balls. once resin is poured inside the ball is sealed. taking a cue from the game of bowling, workers are encouraged to throw the ball, spinning it round and round. once the game is over, the mould is opened and a finished product is removed. the unusual objects created with the ‘rotobowling’ process ‘communicate the freedom of the process that is behind them, and the transformation of a factory into a more human place.’
