Colin Miller Photography

Colin Miller is a British photographer based in Brighton and Hove. His photographs have been described as 'minimalist', 'impressionistic' and 'enigmatic', although he most treasures a comment overheard at an exhibition, 'he should have gone to Specsavers'. Colin's work seeks to answer the basic challenge that all urban based photographers face, that is how do you begin to photograph the visual chaos of a big city?

Colin's images embrace the challenge by exploring the visual chaos, he highlights the fleeting, the ambiguous and the multilayered. He says ' my photography is about people and how they shape and fit into the landscape. People in movement, in the shadows, glimpsed not seen, as reflections and impressions.

I don't think we ever properly see the people we share the space with fellow commuters, people on the street, those who serve us such as the cooks, the waiters, the retail workers, the drivers, the cleaners, those people who sit for hours in empty lobbies in giant glass buildings are, to all intents and purposes, invisible.
