Out Of Focus: Objects In A New Light
This April sees the
work of Stuart Brown donning the walls at Concrete Wardrobe, for a photographic
Maker of the Month exhibition.
Glasgow based Brown
specializes in photographing the familiar, in new and original ways. Inspired
by modern urban landscapes, Scotland and his travels further afield, Brown takes
familiar images, and photographs them from a different angle, in an original way,
to give a whole new spin on our view of them.
Brown uses a style
called 'Bokeh' to create his distinctive abstract photography. ‘Bokeh’ is the
method of concentrating an image down to a number of out of focus points of
light. Brown’s ‘Glasgow Lights' image takes the iconic so-called 'Squinty
Bridge' and renders it, strikingly but still recognisably, to a blur of acid
bright circles of coloured light.
A relatively new kid
on the block, Brown enjoys experimenting with images, ideas and formats for his
work. He produces a range of hand signed greetings cards, larger prints,
posters and block mounted wall prints. These laminated fine art prints sit
flush against the wall, and come in a wide range of sizes.
Of his exhibition at Concrete
Wardrobe, Brown commented, “I have been working with Concrete Wardrobe since October 2012 and am
thrilled to have my work featured prominently in one of Edinburgh’s most fun
and vibrant retail spaces. Customers will get a taste of my extensive range and
exciting new products.”
James Donald, co-owner
of Concrete Wardrobe added, “Brown has a very striking style our customers
appreciate. His work looks great on any wall, and balances the familiar with
the original perfectly. Having Stuart Brown as our April Maker of the Month
means we can stock a broader range of his work than we would normally be able
to do.”
Stuart Brown’s work is
on display at Concrete Wardrobe from 1st to 30th April
2013.
Concrete Wardrobe is open Monday to Saturday 11am to
7pm. (Sunday 12 - 5pm.)
Concrete Wardrobe 50a Broughton Street, Edinburgh EH1

How much do we love these beautifully photographed and made silk squares and scarves by Edinburgh based photographer Michael Wolchover.
The colour has to be seen to be
believed to appreciate the wonderful
vibrancy of these pieces.
Wolchover is an architectural
photographer by trade and he has
made an amzing and imaginative
cross over with this, his first collection
of functional work.

Look whats arrived in Concrete Wardrobe!
We just LOVE these beautiful images by Glasgow based image maker Stuart Brown. These pieces come in a variety of formats from wall mounted pieces to greetings cards.
We think these Scottish based images speak for themselves, but we do have a huge selection of others as well as documenting some of them on our FB page.
Stuart may be new to this but he is certainly a name to watch for!
