UYW Issue 5

Tuesdays which feel like mondays and months slipping by in no time. Once again, I can not believe another month has passed, but below is the new issue of UYW. At the heart of this journal you’ll find five artists who use photography as an art that transforms their world into stills, touching upon telling stories that strive for new visions. Often I imagine them to work in complete silence, their eyes trained intensely on refinement. These images are a little love affair which seduce and hypnotise - they are a source of inspiration, perfectly balanced and reduced to their most basic essence.

Darren Rigo > displacement
Fabio Severo > portraits
Justin Walker > fathers mine
Rodolfo Vanmarcke > modern solitudes
Steven Beckly > little wolf

So I am running a week behind, but here it is finally. For the first time I have put myself in it and I have to confess I found it rather challenging. I mentioned in one of my previous posts, that I have tried (for years) to photograph the Australian landscape, but it's only now I feel I've managed to capture it. When I went camping I had plenty of time to observe the colours of the trees and leaves throughout different times of the day. Sometimes the forest seemed transparent and to capture the beauty of the detail I had to focus on a small area. I've tried this with many different cameras but have been unable until now to replicate the effects I achieved with my 35mm and on film. I followed butterflies and altered the reading of the light to achieve these colours. Sometimes I believe if I could string together all the images I've taken I'd be able to take you on a journey through subtle hues of colour, landscapes and macro photography.

Over the last couple of months I've had the pleasure of working with some outstanding photographers who have taken me on adventures of their own - each month revealing new visions and new perspectives from across the world and its history.
