As a photographer, I’ve long been drawn to the interplay of form, shape, texture, line and light – the ingredients of our visual world, if you like. Working with an ‘abstract’ hat on can be great for playing with these ideas. Rather than capturing the literal representation of a subject, working abstractly can invite the viewer to find beauty or meaning in unexpected places.
