Dichotomy

 Mark E. Howard’s work practice is occupied around the application and artisan craftsmanship of traditional photography practice as a medium in contemporary art today. His work explores the wider creative potential of the darkroom, and the experimental employment of the materials that are established within traditional mediums of photography in endeavouring to create bespoke contemporary fine art photographic works.

In the collection entitled ‘Dichotomy’ the nature of photography in the digital age is explored. Through his traditional wet photography practice Mark E. Howard reimagines his own interpretation of the high dynamic range (HDR) photograph. In these works, he takes the digital constituents within the creation of the HDR image as inspiration and redefines them in physical form in the creation of bespoke physical photographic works. With this work he endeavours to evoke the observer, through the physical forms of the process and methodology, to engage with traditional photography mediums as a creative and relevant medium within contemporary art.
