Essays & Texts about Photography…

Most of these writings are the accompanying texts to the exhibitions that I have held in the past few years. As such they provide additional information about the thought processes that are involved with that type of creative work (and pretty much all my creative work too).

3 roads night

Thisis the fairly dense text that accompanied the exhibition of the same name. A few of the images from 3 roads night are included on this site in the exhibition folder. I like the way this text levers you into my mindset as I created the works that made up exhibition.

Midnight Cabaret

Is an overview of the how & why the Midnight Cabaret photos came about. This essay includes details of the artists and performers who participated in the Cabaret, the where and when of this unique happening in Brisbane in the early 1980’s. Keep an eye out for a selection of these shots being listed in the Archive section of this listed in the months to come.

Beerscapes

The texts by Simon Alderson and myself that accompanied our collaborative Beerscapes exhibition. You can check out a couple of my favourite images from this show in the photography/exhibition folder.

On Digital Photography

This is a short essay that I wrote for the very first Kent Johnson Photography web site quite a few years ago now. It’s a fairly quick read about what I think is great about digital photography & how to make it work for you.
