Focused on King’s College Chapel
Shortlisted for Rubery Book Award 2021: Nonfiction. Several images from the book and series were shortlisted for International Photo Awards 2020 in two categories: Architecture Historic and Architecture Buildings. Also shortlisted for Historic Photographer of the Year in 2018 and 2019.
The photo book Focused is a collection of aesthetic musings presented as a photographic and poetic stroll through King’s College Chapel, Cambridge. Opening with a contextual and historic introduction by The Reverend Dr Stephen Cherry, Dean of King’s Chapel, the book has a sense of mindful meandering throughout the interior of the Chapel.
Many of the images are available for sale on the King’s College Chapel page.
The Barnwell Priory
A 48-pg photographic monograph showing Cambridge’s 13th century Cellarer’s Chequer and Abbey Church – the only two remaining buildings from the 13th century Barnwell Priory.
Once a great priory of medieval England, the present-day remains of the Barnwell Priory sit unused and forgotten in a little corner of the otherwise-famous city of Cambridge. Photographer Sara Rawlinson rediscovers these buildings, uses the old Chequer for an Open Studio, and begins the long process of breathing life back into these long-forgotten buildings.
Bespoke Book with Box
Collections of photographs are available in a handmade bespoke art book with artist-designed book box. Lead time required is a few weeks; expedited service rarely available (please enquire).
Each bespoke book is a unique artisan created collection – an edition of one. The volume contains either 20, 30, or 40 archival fine art prints on cotton paper with pigment-based long-lasting ink, each of which is hand-annotated by the artist. Archival interleaf rice paper separates each print. The box is custom designed and cut to your unique specifications.
