UltraChrome® HD archival inks on Hahnemuhle Photo Rag 308gsm archival paper.(per side) white archival matte, UV Non-glare acrylic.

Gary Horsfall hangs his hat in Seattle, Washington and lives his life wherever he can influence his work and travels to take him. In the past year that has spanned miles upon miles of walks across Seattle to a 1,200 mile 4x4 trek across The Northern Territories and Western Australia (Darwin to Broome along and off, Highway 1). Oh, and a couple, three or four places in all directions in between………

Overall, the theme of my work is “unlock what’s in plain sight.” A consummate observer of the world at large; art, beauty and creativity have always been a significant part of my life and in that, play themselves out through my photography. Through my work I seek to capture what I discover as I roam through my life. And, I’ve led a big life, or so I’ve been told. My observation is not subject to exclusive preferences. I’m drawn to capture people in their natural environments, the beauty of nature; generally close-up and the grandeur, large and small, of man-made objects.

I hope that what you find most striking about my work is the nuance that’s there to be discovered through thoughtful, studied observation. I tell stories…… 

What do you see in the image, familiar to you though the subject may be, what haven’t you perhaps noticed before? What’s the relationship between the things that were captured? What’s the situation? Is a “complication” suggested? What question(s) arise for you as you immerse yourself in the image? What story can you imagine that answers those questions?

You won’t find Waldo but sometimes you may be surprised by what you do find. Look up my image “Trinidad 2017 No.59. What’s in the bootblack’s right ear? It’s not a hearing aid……… Or, look up “Santiago 2017 No.6. When was the last time that you saw someone with four feet!?! See something unusual or unexpected in one of my other images (hint: look at mushrooms). Please send me an email and share gary@garyhorsfall.com.

Perhaps you’ll see that my black and white work hearkens back to the Golden Age of photography spanning the late 1800’s through the 1950’s. At that time the world was transfixed by the likes of Steichen, Sander, the Weston’s, Cunningham, Walker, Frank, Abbott and Penn. My monochrome images interpret today’s world through the “lens” of that time period.

Gary Horsfall divides his time between Treasure Beach, Jamaica; Seattle, Washington; and wherever else his work and travels lead. Recent journeys have ranged from countless walks across Seattle to a 1,200-mile 4x4 trek through Australia’s Northern Territories and Western Australia — Darwin to Broome, on and off Highway 1 — with many places in between. The theme of his work is simple: unlock what’s in plain sight. A lifelong observer of the world, Gary’s fascination with art, beauty, and creativity finds expression through his photography. He captures what is often overlooked — people in their natural environments, the quiet grandeur of nature, and the intricate textures of both man-made and natural objects. His lens works close, revealing nuance in the small as well as the monumental. What makes his work resonate, he hopes, is the subtlety that rewards careful observation. His images invite questions: What’s the relationship between the elements captured? What’s the situation? Is there a complication suggested? What story unfolds as you look longer? The unexpected is often there. In Trinidad 2017 No. 59, what’s in the bootblack’s right ear? It’s not a hearing aid. In Santiago 2017 No. 6, when was the last time you saw someone with four feet? Such moments — curious, layered, and often missed — run throughout his work. Gary’s black-and-white images draw inspiration from the Golden Age of photography, spanning the late 1800s through the 1950s, when artists like Steichen, Sander, the Westons, Cunningham, Walker, Frank, Abbott, and Penn transformed how we see the world. His monochrome work channels that tradition, interpreting today’s world through the lens of a timeless visual language.
