Jasper White (photographer)


Jasper White (born 1973) is a British photographer. His work looks at the relationship between people and territory and how boundaries are defined within space.[1]

He lives in London[2] with his partner Arancha and their daughter, Mia.

Biography

Born in East London and developing a passion for art and image-making at a young age, White studied art at Southend Art College, before going on to Kent Institute of Art & Design.[1]

Alongside working in advertising, many publications have profiled his artwork.[3][4]

White was the key speaker at the 2012 Grid Photo Festival[5] in Amsterdam.

Technique

Working primarily with Lambda prints,[6] a process unparalleled in color saturation, White's spaces are rich in detail but often garish and brash.[7]

Despite photographing human, man-made spaces, there is a distinct absence of people in his images, giving each space room for its own identity and allowing the viewer an opportunity to place themselves within the space.[8] Many of White's images are shot from a direct angle, as if the viewer is standing at the entrance of the interior.

Man Caves

White's first book 'Man Caves', which explores creative expression found in domestic, male-sculpted space, was released 1 July 2014, in Australia, by Thames & Hudson[9]
