Ralph Whitehead UK
His cinematic analog photography is carefully composed and choreographed. His actors perform in a world of limited yet saturated palettes. Whitehead's photography evokes theater in its surreal images. His photographs read like mysterious silent films—his work is not narrative but emotive.
He sets the stage and leads the mind along a curious path to wander upon the enigmatic characters that Whitehead captures in moments of haunting beauty.
Whitehead possesses an ability to create images that feel simultaneously familiar yet deeply unsettling. His photographs use color, fractured narratives, and dreamlike logic to explore our subconscious desires or repulsions. Whitehead employs the uncanny to disrupt comfortable viewing experiences, leaving audiences to reconcile the beautiful with the disturbing.
Whitehead is a British-Italian photographer living in London.
