Two images from my ongoing Apocalypse Now project featured on the Darwin Magazine blog of contemporary photography. The series is being printed in platinum/palladium from 5x7 negatives and was inspired by a quote from Ed Ruscha who said “the landscape is ruined by man’s progress through it”.
Bellamy Hunt, also known as Japan Camera Hunter, has recently been featuring photo-books and zines on his popular website as well as his usual In Your Bag section and his camera buying services. Issue 5 of his look at photo-books featured Predominantly Orange with a few other interesting looking titles from photographers around the globe.
Paper Trail, organised by Hard Workers Club and Smalltime Books, will assemble together the best of Independent Press publishers, stockists, and distributors. During approximately six hours, stallholders (Smalltime Books, Motto Melbourne, Perimeter Books, Knowledge Editions to name a few) will showcase arts and photo zines, books, and even miscellany and celebrate printed works with the public.
My self-published book Predominantly Orange will be on display and available.
