While bunkered underground in Moscow I recall creating this series in the most trying of conditions during winter. I recall the conviction needed to see the project through whilst everyone around was aghast with disbelief that I would even attempt such a thing.
This conviction in me is well founded in the belief that most photography we are surrounded by today is usually just looked at, and seldom looked into. Look at the things around you, the immediate world around you. If you are alive, it will mean something to you, and if you care enough about photography and know how to use it, you will want to represent that meaning through your eyes. If you let other people’s vision get between the world and your own, you will achieve that extremely common and worthless thing, a pictorial photograph.

The red rose, a symbol of unrelenting love is juxtaposed here against a deep dark void. These branded motifs are not created as an homage, but instead a social commentary. We ourselves seem to be drowning in a society that is dominated by a reverence towards the new religion of media, flocking to the church of brand and celebrity.

Untitled 6298
dated 2019.
Unique work on paper from the Siberian artist residency 'Dark Vat'
In early 2019, artist Alexander James Hamilton opened a studio in a disused photographic paper factory located in Siberia that had been closed since the 1970's and called it 'Dark Vat'.
Central to the vast space a 120 square metre black water reflection pool was installed, surrounded by vaulted 5 metre black velvet walls. Classically trained ballet dancers were invited to interpret the Dark Vat in an intimate series of performances. The camera never looking directly at the dancers movement, just that of their reflections, shifting and ephemeral.

artist quote from the series 'in conversation last night'
' I am not saying what is right or wrong, only what is right and wrong for me. There is no attempt to be fashionable here, just an unmitigated apathy towards mechanisation. '
One of the very first images from inside 'Renaciendo'. (Re-Born)
Along with sculptural works, large format photography (PhotoGrams) and a state of the art lighting system hand fabricated by the artist and donated for public bequest to the Convento de los Carmelitas; the last standing Baroque structure left standing in Spain. The building has remained closed to the public for over 170 years, the artist worked alone for over 3,000 hours to bring this project to life and save this important heritage site.

3 years ago I started collecting brand segregated waste then recycling it all back into a more positive outcome for their 'end of life’ use, instead of ending up in land fill or worse. The energy used to make one can alone is the same as recycling 95 old cans back into new. A horrifying waste of materials and energy that is enabling the global warming that we are all witnessing today.
Coca Cola is rebranded in the studio with a 3d render model of a classic coke glass bottle with the text changed to 'Drink Less’.
This was the first piece to be created from the new recycling studio in the Maldives called 'Makers Place'. The piece is made from 1,000 beach cleanup recycled Coca Cola cans.
weight +/- 1.0 kilogramme - height 20cms width 6cms
one unique piece GBP £2,400 (NB. 5 pieces are showing in image)
delivery instructions taken once sale is complete.
read more about 'Makers Place' recycling studio setup in the Maldives.
Makers Place becomes the first carbon neutral aluminium and plastic recycling facility to be setup in the Maldives. The facility aims to tackle plastic and aluminium drinks industry waste in the region.
This project helps ensure oceans stay clean for habitat and species protection from the drinks & confectionary industry which creates vast amounts of pollution and waste in the region.
The facility, equipment & processes were built from the ground up by artist Alexander James Hamilton working with the Soneva Namoona Foundation. The green credentials for this groundbreaking facility is brought about by conserving every drop of water used in a custom designed closed loop wash station, and, by capturing all carbon and polluting emissions with a custom VOC carbon filtration system.
The facility is called 'Makers Place', read more about this project here.
'The Thinker'
weight +/- 9,280 grammes - h 23cms x w 17 cms
edition of VII - GBP £9,800
What would the artist Auguste Rodin or indeed his model posing in 'The Thinker' be contemplating if it were made today, and not in its orginal 1902 form. The world has changed so dramatically since then, most notable the polluted oceans, rivers and land fill sites filled with single use packaging.
Read how this piece was created in the journal here.
Fabricated in the exact same Carbon Neutral way as at the Makers Place recycling studio I helped setup in the Maldives.
