Sara Lowes, Smoke Signals

April 13, 2016 by admin | Comments Off

Part of Manchester’s 2016 Future Everything Festival, Smoke Signals is a mixed media art installation by Ed Carter and David Cranmer. The installation, which converts digital data into a audio-visual sculptures using smoke cannons and sub-sonic frequencies, was housed at the International Anthony Burgess Foundation and Future Everything also commissioned three musicians to each create a special one-off performances alongside the artwork. One of the three commissioned artists, Sara Lowes, asked me along to document her performance and the installation also gave us the opportunity for a unique portrait shoot. Here are a selection of my favourite images from our collaboration:

Brighter Sound – Young Musicians Week

February 25, 2016 by admin | Comments Off

Last week I had the pleasure of working with Brighter Sound, an organisation that produces creative music projects and events in Manchester. The project was ‘Young Musicians Week’, an opportunity for young people to work with some amazing musicians and artists including Richard Jupp (Elbow), Natalie McCool, Jenna G, InnaVoice and Burgaboy. You can see some of my favourite shots from the week below.

Brighter Sound also organised the Beth Orton residency last year (also featuring Natalie McCool) which culminated in a beautiful group performance at the end of a week of collaboration and songwriting – you can see my photos of their one-night-only gig here.
