Surface Gallery

Surface Gallery presents an exhibition of photographic work by Tom Lovelace.
A selection of projects made over the last year will be on display, including work from his latest series: Ruptures

The industrial landscape provides the stage on which Tom crafts, installs and excavates to create ephemeral objects and environments that exist solely for the camera. Each scene is constructed life size, presenting disconcerting scenarios that lie in the cusp between reality and fiction.

‘These works are part of an on-going project investigating the medium of photography and the visual possibilities when fused with sculpture and installation. I create and manipulate objects and places that I then document with my camera. Each image is approached as a visual fragment from a larger manufactured world.

I am constantly drawn back to the industrial landscape and this is where most of my work begins. I am interested in the point at which the mundane teeters upon the fantastical.’





Tom studied at the Arts Institute Bournemouth, graduating in Photography (BA 1st Class Hons), before reading Art History at Goldsmiths College, London. He has since exhibited around the UK and has recently displayed work at Photofusion (London), Artsway
(Hampshire) and been selected for the IPG/Terry O’Neill Award 2008.
