Judge’s quote
“From simple elements of the everyday, Alex Shepherd opens up veins of investigation which yield results of rich beauty and depth. These quiet explorations speak volumes of the imperfections inherent in human existence and the failures that are a inevitable result of society’s constant drive for perfection.
Fascinating and intriguing, Shepherd’s work promises great things, and I am confident that the year ahead will bring truly rewarding developments for both the artist and the club members who are fortunate enough to interact with his progress”
Rukhsana Jahangir, head of the art department of the Museum of Everything
“The striking thing about Alex Shepherd is that his photographs display the sensibility of a young artist deeply concerned for the truth. He is beginning the complex process of developing his own special language: part scientist, part magician, he calls into play the disciplines of painting, sculpture, installation, drawing and photography as he examines each subject in front of the lens.”
Hannah Barry, Director of Hannah Barry Gallery
