Phil Collins Work from his oeuvre. “In all the different strands of his practice Collins investigates the perils of representation and the emotional core of such seemingly transparent media as video and photography. Instinctively distrustful of the camera and its effects, yet responsive to its potential as an instigator of relationships, his works often revolve […]

Hannah Whitaker Work from Victory over the Sun!. “Much of the work takes visual cues from pioneering formalists, but does so at a critical distance. The show borrows the visual clarity of basic shapes and a de-saturated palette from these artists, but uses this language to its own end, poking affectionate fun at their anachronistic […]

Jeff McLane Work from his oeuvre. “My current body of work is an on-going project focusing on image capture technology and photo abstraction. As my previous projects have focused on social landscape, my new project uses a more camera-controlled environment, producing a non-serial body of work – a first for myself.

Natasha Caruana Work from The Married Man. “Natasha Caruana’s series of photographs, ‘Married Man’ documents occasions when the artist arranged ‘dates’ through dating websites designed for married men to conduct affairs.

Adam Broomberg & Oliver Chanarin Work from People in Trouble. “People in trouble laughing pushed to the ground. Soldiers leaning, pointing, reaching. Woman sweeping. Balloons escaping. Coffin descending. Boys standing. Grieving. Chair balancing. Children smoking. Embracing. Creatures barking. Cars burning. Helicopters hovering. Faces. Human figures. Shapes. Birds. Structures left standing and falling… The Belfast Exposed […]

John Divola Work from the exhibition Trees for the Forest. ““The works on view span the last four decades, and provide an expansive yet necessarily incomplete picture of John Divola’s practice – a canny yet understated  blend of documentary photography, conceptual art, performance and installation. The collection of works begins in 1971 with Divola’s images of women […]
