David Hiscock
Since 1992 David Hiscock has been developing a body of personal abstract work concerned with recording the resonance of our relationship with the world that surrounds us. These works have investigated aspects of the natural world as well as manmade technology for their subjects, there is also an ongoing series of self-portraits.
Produced with specially constructed and modified cameras these images oppose the conventions of the photographic moment. The camera is continually moving, shifting its viewpoint and focus. They are made over time yet do not become pure abstraction but an extended moment, a combination of what is seen and what is invented.
David Hiscock’s work is held in numerous public and private collections including the National Portrait Gallery, Deutsch Bank and The Royal Photographic Society. His output encompasses large-scale installations for corporate clients to private portrait commissions as well as being firmly established in the world of commercial photography.
