In Between the Shadows 3 Giclee Print on Hahnemuhle Pearl Fine Art Paper Print Size: 37x 30cm , Framed: 44 x 37 cm Edition of 7 + 2 AP, Currently available of the edition: 5-7 The series ‘In Between the Shadows’ consists of structural and geometric photographs that take their inspiration from the cubist movement.

The chiaroscuro lighting embraces shadows and light as juxta- positional tools to deconstruct familiar objects and transform them into surreal compositions. Sander Vos...

Ancient Woodland All the elements used were collected from the first walk with my Mum and stepdad between lockdowns. All from a small woodland in North Norfolk. Ancient Woodland, 2020 Series: Detritus Archival Pigment Print, Mounted on Dibond in custom made Frame; with Black Stained Oak and antireflective UV protective museum standard Art Glass Print 60 x 60 cm / Framed: 62 x 62 cm/ 24.5 x 24.5 inches approx. Edition of 8 + 2AP About the project: "Detritus' series was born from the twin frustrations of lockdown halting all planned projects, yet litter still somehow being dropped in abundance on my street. With no idea of the final output, or indeed the hygiene implications, I started to collect, scan, and record what I found. When I realised these colourful misshapen objects could be turned into something beautiful, the frustrations left me and I began looking for other sources of Detritus. These collages gave me purpose during the pandemic and allowed me to grow something beautiful from a place of frustration. My aim is to simply give viewers of the work a fleeting moment of calm. Unable to shoot anything, I’ve been making collections of things I find on the ground and scanning them to create composite images of otherwise ignored or discarded objects." - George McLeod...

"The bottomless depths of a private koi pond in a Sussex garden. Dancing light, rhythmic flow and a scattering of flowers on the surface, all help to convey the dark mystery of a life below the surface." - Valda Bailey...

Supernova 2, 2017 "The sunflowers displayed here have been chosen, not only because of their golden individuality, but also because, like gold, they seem to have an everlasting quality. They don't readily wither and die but remain timelessly viable; their dazzling petals slowly becoming bronzed and desiccated, their statuesque form, elegantly contorted." Valda Bailey...
