Bingley Banalography

Two modern town houses, each with a twin garage give a certain symmetry to the picdture. In front of the houses are wheelie bins. There is a line of red white and blue bunting that stretches across the picture in front of the houses.

We are surrounded by the mundane, the ordinary and the banal everyday, but do we ever look at it?

This series of photographs aim to capture moments of ordinariness, frozen as moments in time. A car going past on the road. A hedge. A wall. A house.

These pictures could have been taken anywhere. Though could they?

Six pictures from this series, taken in Bingley in 2023 are being exhibited at Bingley Arts Centre between February 6th and March 15th 2024.

I’m planning a zine on this. For now you can check out some of the pictures in my gallery
