'Forgotten Norfolk'
Brian Wells
Brian Wells is not one of those photographers who roam the countryside in search of the inevitable 'chocolate box scene'.
His mission is to unearth the places that the torch hasn't shone on for many a long year; his camera zooming in on all things derelict and deteriorating across Norfolk - an original celebration of our local land.
Brian still prefers to shoot on film using his trusty ancient Rolleiflex; he enthuses 'that the quality of Zeiss lenses are legendary'.
An ongoing project that started back in 2000, has taken Brian to many different locations including Grand Country Houses, RAF bases, Churches, Farmhouses and even a Tuberculosis Hospital to name but a few.
His most successful technique is the simplest - scouting for locations by hook or by crook, armed with a weatherproof ordnance survey map.
If decay is in the air, Brian will sniff it out.

'Re-Membering'
Renata Grant
In 'Re-Membering' Renata Grant has created 'memory boxes' which explore, through the use of different photograpic media, (transparencies, film prints, digital imagery, appropriated postcards and maps), the way in which we form documentary evidence for our memories.
The visual narratives occurring within the work are for the viewer to interpret as they wish. The American anthropologist & artist Susan Hillier sums it up perfectly when she says “If you think about the narrative that collections or assemblages of things make, the interesting thing is that there are always at least two possible stories: one is the story that the narrator, in this case the artist thinks she is telling …-the other is the story that the listener is understanding , or hearing, or imagining on the basis of the same objects. And there would always be at least two versions of whatever was being told”.

'Shore'
Paul Coghlin
In “Shore”, Paul Coghlin seeks to evoke reflection through composition, textures and tones in his images of locations along the Suffolk coast in England, creating an ethereal white expanse of the crashing waves.
Paul employs a number of photographic techniques whilst composing and capturing the monochrome images, with each one being completed back in the studio to draw-out the detail and emotion contained in the image.
After the Suffolk shore, new work has been completed in locations such as Cambridge and as far a-field as Canada, with subjects ranging from a dark rolling storm over a farm to droplets of morning dew on a fallen leaf to a powerful lion's stare.
