Graham Murrell: Blackadder Water I

GRAHAM MURRELL is the former Head of Photography at Central St Martins College of Art, London. Widely published and exhibited, Murrell has worked on projects with organisations such as The New Art Centre, Roche Court, Kettles Yard and Blackwell Arts and Crafts House. Murrell describes his approach to photography as ‘reductive’ and says “I am interested in the least amount of information that will results in pictures that are about ‘place’ rather than descriptive in the conventional sense.” His photographs are a construction of line and tone that seek to create a sense of balance, often around a central point, engaging with the tension of the equilibrium between unequal values.
