Peter Holm

Peter Holm (b. 1978) developed a wanderlust and interest in photography in his early teens. He studied at Cambridge & Leicester College, experimenting with film & darkroom printing techniques. After graduating he assisted editorial & architectural photographers whilst honing his unique style. World travel followed, and, inspired by natural and urban landscapes and the people who inhabit them, he produces photographs that are beautiful and impactful.

He has exhibited in London, Brighton, Sydney, with permanent commissions in New York. He has been a guest on Sydney FBI radio.

He now lives on the river Thames, and continues to shoot both film and digital.

Flavour Pill Review 21-09-2006 By Brianna Smith:Peter Holm's photographic technique is at once honed, precise, fanciful, and experimental. The photos he captures with a fish-eye lens and colour infrared a swimming pool, an apartment building, a shadow on the beach, solitary figures captured in their most everyday moments portray the subtle and ordinary aspects of the world through his blithe, fresh, and illuminating sensibility. A native of the UK, he brings his work to the Bay Area at one of SoMa's newest gallery spaces. (BMS)
