Photography leans toward the literal, its capacity for dead-eye mimicry tending to yoke it to the figure. But the medium’s materiality, as Megan Ringrose’s fresh and welcome exhibit – Fabric of Photography: Material Matters – illuminates, also shapes photography’s mnemonic and affective force.
The Eye of Photography
Written by Christian Bullingdon
In an exhibition curated by Megan Ringrose, twelve experimental photographic artists exhibit their work in Oxford as part of Photo Oxford Festival due to open at Lower Gallery, The Old Fire Station, central Oxford, from the 15th of October until 13th of November. Each artist focuses on materiality within their practice. They are inspired by historical processes invented in the 19th Century, and work with the fundamental elements of the photographic medium: Light, Time and Material.
British Photographic History

This exhibition not only explores the movement of photography from representation to abstraction, it also looks at the thread of analogue practitioners who continue to practice with finite materials or new materials with fresh ideas on what photography might be or do in the 21st century.
