Ian Ray
The nature and construction of urban and rural landscape and its representation through the photographic medium is the prominent focus of my creative practice. The consideration and critique of both the historical and contemporary precedents working in this area has sort to clarify my own way of looking. It is alongside this investigation and attempt to understand the history, qualities and resilience of place, that an underlying theme to the work has been discovered; the notion of the photographic. This idea has been explored through acts of mapping and disruption; playing with methods of description, reduction, and absence of the image; and acts of appropriation. The relationships between a series of photographs, video, text and objects, aims to encompass an understanding of the construction of the medium and the representation of place.
