Artist Statement for Robin Whalley
|
|
|
Beyond artistic concerns, the priority in my work is to produce imagery of the highest quality. I achieve this in a number of ways, working with both traditional film and digital image capture. All my work is however digitally mastered before entering my Photoshop workflow.
I now use a range of cameras in my work, each bringing a unique character to the images. For those with a technical interest my main equipment is Canon digital SLR’s, Pentax 67 II medium format film, Hasselblad XPan II panoramic film and a Holga for artistic inspiration. With film I shoot both transparency and Black and White, but much prefer the freedom and latitude of the black and white negative.
I will make no excuses for my use of Photoshop. This is a wonderful tool for the digital artist, allowing the true vision to be realised. My approach is for my work to move beyond reality; beyond the scene that was in front of the camera at the moment the shutter was clicked although the final image must remain believable. My goal is for the viewer to question how nature could create something so wonderful rather than question if the scene is real.
