Mobile Phone Cameras In Prague

February 5, 2019

The Prague Astronomical Clock, or Prague Orloj, is a medieval astronomical clock located in Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic. The clock was first installed in 1410, making it the third-oldest astronomical clock in the world and the oldest one still operating. As you can see it is a magnet for tourists when it chimes.

When I look back into my Liverpool archive from the 70s to the early 80s you can see how the city has changed over the past 45 years. Has it changed for the better? I can’t find a single image of a homeless person on the streets from the earliest years of the archive. Today it’s a different story. A story of austerity Britain.

Phone Art In Rome

February 1, 2019

You may have noticed that over the years my street photography has been flooded with images of people on the street using a mobile phone. Has the use of digital technology enabled people to be more in touch with the world around them or has it caused a breakdown in how people relate to the environment and other people around them?

The work below is based on a photograph I took in Rome last year of a young woman seated on her bike and using a mobile phone.

‘On the phone in Rome’. Mixed media measuring 210 x 297 mm (A4) on 350gm card.

The original image. Rome 2018.
