Lisa Lavery,  Lunaria

Lisa Lavery is a photographer who makes camera-less images, using methods that reach back to the invention of the medium. The work on show includes photograms – images made by placing objects directly onto light sensitive material – made from leaves and seeds, objects related to Lewis Carroll’s ‘Alice in Wonderland’ and a bicycle!

Nicky Fordyce, Untitled

Nicky Fordyce is a photographer who uses long exposures and creative lighting to make ‘bodyscapes’ – images of the body and face which explore personal and family relationships.

Lucy Gresley, Fall, 2012
