Welcome
Guy Paterson has been teaching both Alternative Photographic Processes and Cameraless Photography for over 15 years at Central St. Martins and elsewhere in the United Kingdom.
As well as running short courses for several years Guy has tailored specific workshops to run within many disciplines including MA communication, MA Industrial Design BA Photography.
When not teaching you will usually find him in his studio is in Hackney, East London.His work can be found, publicly displayed in both London and Reading.
His own work approaches photography from a fine art print background combining photomechanical techniques with conventional photography.
Fascinated by what we leave behind - both in the form of artifacts and redundant technology. His work often re-appropriates and reassigns obsolete industrial equipment, materials and techniques questioning our standing and perception of history and therefore progress. For him the stripping of photography to its basic essentials allows both a typological analysis and a rich personal aesthetic.
