Artist Statement for Jonathan Charles
|
|
|
My medium is art photography. This means there is no claim of documentary realism - the pictures are created to present an idea but based originally on photographs and (mostly) having the style of a photographic image. I work in South West England and he Charente region of France. My subject is an exploration of beauty and dreams - I see more than enough of troubling reality to want to project it further.
My work covers 40 years starting with B&W bleak landscapes through abstract nudes, portraits, dance & theatre to the added dimension of colour and emphasis on personal experience and subconscious mythology. I am always improvising, trying to learn from the images and people's reactions to them.
My own website is a portal to my longstanding photo.net gallery which includes a lot of background information about the images. I also have a blog which I have just re-activated. I plan to add the stories behind many of my photo series, old and new.

For non-commercial uses some of my images may be available free if suitably credited - please contact me for details.
A note on prices: prints are strictly limited to 99 per edition and the price of each print is increased as more of that edition are purchased. The first is offered for $200 (+delivery) and the second for $220 incrementing by $20 for prints 2-20 and by $50 for 21-40, more steeply thereafter. Ownership is registered and transferable so prints can be re-sold at near the current price for that edition, ensuring a steady increase in the value of your investment. Provided provenance is maintained damaged or lost prints will be replaced at cost (in the artist's lifetime). Full details on request.
