Artists talk: Saturday 6th June at 3pm. Free, all welcome.
Giacomo Brunelli creates extraordinary photographs of animals, both living and dead, using a Miranda Sensomat camera from 1968 that once belonged to his father. His photographs are taken during daily morning walks when the light is best and his subjects are those randomly encountered along the way.
The black and white images are printed by hand in a makeshift darkroom. The images are dramatic, powerful and intriguing, sometimes comic and occasionally tragic and offer a refreshing change in this age of digital technology.
This exhibition lets us into a dark world of menace and strangeness. Even though some of these animals may be pets, these images demonstrate how close to the wild they really are, when depicted roaming the streets in a world completely separate from ours.
