In conversation with Stephen King: Landscape Photography as Contemporary Art

28 Sep, 2024

3:00 pm – 5:00 pm

Stephen King, Cascade, 2023, Scotland, Photography - Archival Pigment Print on Photo Rag UltraSmooth 315 gsm paper, 150x112cm

With close readings of the works in the exhibition and personal anecdotes, this conversation promises to give us insight into how King's distinctive approach enriches the discourse around landscape photography in the context of contemporary art practice.

In this fireside chat, we'll explore how Stephen King uses his craft to create painterly images that evoke emotional responses and challenge viewers' perceptions of nature; how his works draws themes and inspirations from contemporary art masters while retaining the unique qualities of photography. His keen eye for light, color, and composition not only reflects the beauty of the landscapes he captures but also engages with broader art historical themes.


The exhibition is on view til 19 October, 2024
