About The Artwork

I started a project shooting hands in different poses and with objects and was playing around with this half nautilus when I held it in the way shown here, so all I needed was a suitable hand and a natural location for a background. This was shot during the film days on medium format film with a Mamiya RX67, a great camera with beautiful lenses. A friend of my wife at the time offered to do the shot so we went to an area I knew near the sea in Sydney that had good sandstone rocks for potential backgrounds. I am a great admirer of Ed Weston's work, in particular his shots of nautilus shells and bodies. I hadn't realised that this image resembles a head and neck, and is symbolic of the experience of inner discovery.

I was born in Trinidad and Tobago and travelled all over the world with my parents before settling in The UK for my education. I went to Sherborne School and Reading University before moving to London to be a photographic assistant to many different photographers including Anthony Blake and Spencer Rowell. Then I moved to Australia to further my career in photography that is now 35 years long as a commercial and art photographer in Sydney. I have had several exhibitions including Transformation 1992, Lifeforce 1996, Sahaja 2000, and have completed new spiritual works, The Chakras, 2014 that are shown here on Saatchi Art. I now also teach photography with Alfonso Photo tours in Sydney. I have two websites, Chrisljonesphoto.com for commercial and sahajaprints.com for prints.
