“My work in digital photography explores the nature of perception. Beginning with a high-resolution digital photograph, I decompose it into what I see as constituent elements, alter each element, and then recombine them to create a memorial representation of the image,” says Brooks, “I print my images in limited editions of three on fine art paper, or uniquely on canvas. I do not view my work as photography per se, my works are more closely aligned to paintings; paintings in which I paint with color, the photograph, and my memory.”
The show will run from August 27th through October 30th

Tord Boontje’s successful harnessing of industrial technologies to create what must be described as ‘Romantic Modern Design’ has established him as a creative talent to watch. Born in Enschede in the Netherlands in 1968, he studied industrial design at the Eindhoven Design Academy before moving to the UK to enroll at the Royal College of Art, London. After graduating, Boontje opened a studio in south London where he designs today.
