Paul Gallagher
embedded with the troupes
P. Gallagher is a dynamic and high energy photographer working with a range of clients from circus troupes, dogs, sports professionals. He specialises in being on site and in the field, surrounded by people. In the past few years Gallagher has worked with Play Festival, Hillbray Dog Rescue, Code Red Entertainment, Wolverhampton Creative Central Screen School, and more.In recent work Gallagher has been fusing his knowledge of the circus, riot history and fire to create a series of mixed media works on riot shields exploring the role of himself as a field photographer. This project is a forensic style analysis of becoming embedded within the troupes. Drawing on years of work alongside the circus community as they perform up and down the country. Following the style of gonzo journalism, he wants to capture the heart of the event with his camera, and platforming a lifestyle which seems exotic, technical, dangerous and unknown to the outsider.
