JENNI GUDGEON

For as long as I can remember I’ve been fascinated by the idea of worlds within worlds, and what is hidden at the edge of perception. I see my task as revealing these communities who are veiled in some way from normal sight. My interest in myths and legends means my work is peppered with references to traditions, fairytales, and tall stories.By etching into photographs, I combine the everyday world, as picked up by my camera, with the fantastical world of the human imagination. The ‘scratches’ I make are a desirable addition to my photos and a thing of beauty in their own right. If you like my work, then please follow me on Facebook / Instagram and sign up for my mailing list. Thank you for visiting.
