Richard Heeps
Chair, Northwich - Blue industrial interior photography

1986

About the Item

A chair sits in an otherwise derelict factory in a blue painted room, the depth perspective creates a colour blocking effect. from Richard Heeps 'Ordinary Places', a series capturing Britain on the brink of change. It was Richard's first colour series and it achieved much success with an exhibition at the Photographers Gallery in 1989 which then went on to tour Museums and Public Galleries around Britain. More recently 'Ordinary Places' formed part of Richard's 30 year Retrospective at The International Photography & Moving Image Art Fair Milan in 2016. This artwork is a limited edition of 25, gloss photographic print, dry-mounted to aluminium, presented in a museum board white window mount and a choice of black or white box frame made professionally in the UK. It is signed and numbered on reverse accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. This artwork is available in other sizes and pairs well with Richard's other artworks so be sure to look at our 1stdibs store to see more of his work. Richard Heeps’ seductive, highly saturated colours and sophisticated pictorial structures demonstrate a true love and empathy for his subject matter – be it cool, descriptive interiors, still life, portrait or landscape. His distinctive style pushes the limits of lens-based photography without the need for digital manipulation. He runs his own darkrooms in Cambridge (UK) where he hand prints his colour photography. His work has been exhibited in Museums and Public Galleries around England, and he has participated in Art Fairs around the world, and his work is now part of many international collections.
