part of quad exposure project, he will exhibit work there (derby), he got in by applying to the exhibition (sending off his work) he is interested in people and places which is his theme .
his drawing skills were and still are considerably lacking, so photography quickly became his primary method of creative expression
david has been exploring photography and has started to acquire his own style, although he is always willing to give anything new a try as david see's everything as a learning curve and an opportunity to progress.sever goes to Cornwall once a year on holiday with his Dad and that's where he shoots most of the coastal scenes and waterscapes. However, coastal views are pretty impossible to come by where he lives which is in the central England so when hes at home,he use's a range of cameras including a Holga, a legendary Polaroid SX-70 and a digital SLR to capture urban/street scenes and delve into documentary projects.David has done a series of work called 'thanks maggie' which is a series of photographs exploring the ecological restoration and reinvented social use of ex colliery land in and around the former coal mining stronghold of mansfield nottinghamshire, this project also looks at the current social situation in the town, particularly in relation to its post industrial recovery.
The project he is currently working on is 'the showmen' which is about the travelling showmen community in the uk.
