David Stewart

Observations on family, society, relationships and life in general; beautifully art directed with a knowing smile and ready wink. The colour photographs bear close scrutiny both technically and emotionally, revealing more the closer you look. The format of a children’s board book alludes to Stewart’s childlike curiosity, whilst the images hint at an altogether darker heart. Words by Peter Kirby.

Stewart won the Taylor Wessing Photographic Portrait Prize 2015, and has been previously exhibited in the National Portrait Gallery a further 15 times.

In 1995 he directed the Bafta nominated short film Cabbage, which led to the creation of his film and TV production company, Shed Films.
