EXHIBITIONS
Anthony lives in Toronto, Canada, where he has been making photographs for over 18 years.
His work is primarily in the genres of urban, graphic, architecture and abstract photography.
In the Winter 2017 and Spring 2018, he was featured in the Elaine Fleck Fine Art Catalogue (Toronto) as one of 20 "emerging artists you should know about".
Artist Statement
The most mundane things can be objects of art. They offer lines, shapes, colours and patterns, particularly when photographed in the abstract or taken out of their context. They tell stories that are different than what the original object, when photographed in totality and in context, might tell.
With only a small amount of post-processing, these images can be enhanced, without losing the essence of the object.
My goal is to create a photograph from a subject-matter that might otherwise be considered mundane, that the viewer will find intriguing or mysterious and/or simply pleasing.
Anthony has participated in many group shows in Toronto, including with the Luminance Foto Group, f8 Photography Collective , the Elaine Fleck Gallery and the Arta Gallery .
