Artist’s Talk
HARVEY BENGE
My House My Head
2pm
Saturday 9th June @ Satellite
Running in conjunction with
The Auckland Festival of Photography
"With few exceptions, photographers mostly investigate other worlds, worlds outside their own. For the last 15 years or so, this has been the basis of my practice. A dispassionate on-looker. Now, with this series –My House, My Head – I am both the observer and the observed. I have turned the camera on myself, my life, to try and make sense of my world." -Harvey Benge ‘07
Harvey Benge is renowned for his evocative and
mysterious images, taken in cities around the world. With a
passion for the photo-book, working with publishers in
Britain, France and Germany, his picture series have been
published prolifically with eleven editions to date. His
work has also been shown in public and dealer gallery shows
across Europe including Britain, France, Holland, Germany,
Poland and Italy.
