Southbank Bristol Arts

This is the first time I’ve shown any of my photos outside of my own house, so please go easy on me! Though I take a lot of photos (a downside of digital photography) I am showing just a few framed enlargements and a set of photos compiled into a book.

I’ve been interested in photography for as long as I can remember, but especially since my father bought me a camera when I was maybe 15 or 16. I was, and still am enormously grateful, as the camera was an Olympus OM-4 Ti, almost the last model in a series of fantastic film cameras from Olympus with features that rival many modern and very pricey digital cameras.

Olivier Burnside will be exhibiting three themed and contrasting collections of photographic work. You can contact him via olivierburnside@gmail.com.

Born in the capital city just over half a century ago, and growing up in the rural West Midlands, I now think of Bristol as my home (though I still smile at the Bristol 'L' or when people call me "My Lover". This great Western city provides me with plenty of subject matter for my pictures.

I have been a keen photographer for just over half my life. When the digital revolution first came along I was decidedly unimpressed. Even if you spent a small fortune on digital equipment you could not even come close to the quality of a 35mm film image, let alone any of the larger formats.

The selection of photographs showing at the Grant Bradley Gallery were taken over the last three years. I would describe my work as 'quiet photography' that connects with a location by focusing on the detail; it explores the painterly quality that photography can bring to rural as well as urban landscape.

Tree climbing - a lost art? A photographic study of Bristol, but with a difference! Can you name the tree's location and can you spot the climber?

I have lived in Southville since graduating in Graphic Design from UWE back in 1994. After working as a graphic designer for Mulberry in Somerset, I took time out to travel the world, returning home a year later with over 3000 photographs!

In 2002 I set up my business, Cardtastic (www.cardtastic.co.uk) and published my first range of photographic greeting cards. The Riverside Garden Centre was our very first stockist, and you may have seen our cards in other local shops like Cardiac on North Street. We now supply to over 300 independent retailers across the UK and beyond.

I have lived in Southville for about 9 years and sell regularly at the Tobacco factory Market every Sunday.
I take digital images.
Focusing recently on the urban environment. This work contains many local images, although not exclusively.
I enjoy the way through photography (ie the freezing of a place/object), the viewer can see the image through my eyes then interpret it as their own vision.
Special attention is given to composition and contrast.
My work is in the format of prints and greeting cards.
