ABOUT

"Nigel Shafran’s work is characterised by the quiet observation of everyday life. His chosen subject matter is deliberately low-key and often domestic in nature: the washing up, his Dad’s office, charity shops and car boot sales. And yet his work extracts from this something profound and consistently beautiful, the sense of a natural order in ordinary things, or, as Shafran says ‘an acceptance of how things are’. Having established himself as one of the most respected fashion photographers in the UK during the 1990s, Shafran has shifted his attention towards a more intimate relationship between the photographer and the photographed.
