If there are diverse kinds of knowledge and ways of knowing place, then we need to learn to value the different ways each of us sees a single place that is significant, but differently so, for each perspective.

Swedish Photography: Struan Gray « Previous | |Next »
June 12, 2011

Struan Gray's commonplace book of ideas, musings and works in progress with lots links and photos is entitled Twiglog.

Gray says about his work:

it takes me time to apprehend the visual significance of things, and those of my photographs which move me the most are the ones taken over an extended period of time on repeated visits to the same small places.

He still dreams of travelling to take photographs of the remote and the exotic, but he knows himself well enough to be sure that the photographs would not be worth showing.

In this work he photographs in the long twilight and he accepts that the wind will take hold of the camera and add its own mark to the photographic process.
