Alexander Hoyles, Spring Flowers Series, Digital, archival Giclée print on Hahnemühle photo rag, Edition of 3 (2 prints per image + 1 Artists proof)

This dried bouquet caught in summer sun on the photographer's dining table was created as part of a series of potential imagery for a personal commision. These 2 images are the last remaining from a suite of 4 images of this arrangement. These pieces constitute a shift in Alexander's work, as domestic and interpersonal imagery is folded into his Reflected Repetition series - eventually out of this would develop his current series CITE (Caught in the Echo) which documents the interplay between his photographic practice, struggles with mental health and the first two years of his daughter's life, unframed, 29.5 cm x 42cm (2)

Alexander Hoyles is a fine art photographer, film & image maker who relocated to Glasgow from Auckland (New Zealand) in 2018.
Graduating from The University of Auckland - Elam School of Fine Arts (BFA Hons) in 2010, Alexander has continued to make and exhibit sculptural and photographic work, whilst also working creatively within the film and advertising industries.

Much of Alexander’s work centers around creating carefully curated or crafted representations and re-presentations of existing moments and locations, freezing in time the subtle, the sublime and the beautiful aspects of the built and natural environment. He is interested in the balance and tension between the uncanniness and discomfort that inherently comes from taking a moment out of time, and the ability of that same process to capture the natural essence of things.

Alongside several bodies of personal work in current development, Alexander continues to create ongoing commercial and portraiture work, completing a number of commissions for individual artists, authors and performers, as well as working with a wide range of clients across the arts and culture sectors including Greater Govanhill Magazine, New Practice Architects, Scottish Contemporary Art Network, Impact Arts, WASPS, Thackray Museum of Medicine, Glasgow Sculpture Studios and many others.
