Current exhibition
Hidden Landscapes - An exhibition of macro photography by Jack Briggs-Miller
March 5th - April 1st 2025
Jack Briggs-Miller is a photographic artist & graphic designer based in Colchester.
Jack’s work is inspired by the subject matter of dreams, memories & the visualisation of the unseen; with exploration & experimentation at the heart of his practice. Through the use of handmade lenses & experimental techniques he seeks to find new ways to explore curated scenes or found objects.
“Hidden Landscapes” utilises macro photography to study the unseen details of rocks, fossils and crystals. With the use of experimental lighting techniques, the crystal's internal and external surfaces are able to be illuminated simultaneously, thus revealing the hidden colours & patterns found within their natural forms. This process allows Jack to explore the hidden landscapes within their structures that would otherwise be unexplorable.
