Edition of 5 plus 2 artists' proofs

The Hindu festival of Holi, also known as the Festival of Colours, was the initial inspiration for the Paint Pigment Photographs.

 

The physical act of throwing the paint pigment is an essential aspect of the finished work. Explosions of colour captured at 1/8000th of a second retain the energy of the act itself, suspended in space.

 

The images are about colour and an unpredictable interaction with form and light.
