Glacier by Pablo Hughes

"I am drawn to surfaces, old windows, crumbling render, discarded construction materials, not for nostalgia but for their capacity to abstract. These photographs are studies in texture and form, revealing accidental compositions that often verge on the uncanny… These works are not landscapes in the traditional sense but psychological environments, spaces where presence and absence coexist." - Pablo Hughes, Artist

Drawing inspiration from contemporary local and global issues, Pablo Hughes follows an unconventional approach to his photography. His subject matter represents that which is shunned and discarded - highlighting what is often forgotten, overlooked, worn or frayed.

From the simple and commonplace, Hughes creates complex narratives. These thoughtful image constructions and juxtapositions add layers of ambiguity, question reality and engage the viewer in the ‘quiet drama’ of his photographic compositions.
