Gem Clipsham

VISUAL ARTIST

We exist in a landscape illuminated by light, it is our responses to this that form our identity and perceptions of one another.

Photography speaks to nostalgia, the play of light/dark/shadow, the expectation of the moment and the before and after.

When we are surrounded by great beauty, we can then become more of what we see.
