Richard Heeps and Natasha Heidler

A celebration of the vinyl record and analogue technology, which reflects the artists practice within photography.

 

Heidler’s seductive images are a playful collection of contradictions. Ghostly outlines collide with vibrant colours. Their black backgrounds give them the appearance of neon signs lost in the night sky; the casinos or hotels they may have once belonged to, long gone.

 

Natasha Heidler has developed her own dichromatic technique resulting in something that is neither straightforward photograph, not photogram. The special dark room process that she has cultivated confounds and intrigues both art lovers and photographers alike. She has been working in photography since 2005 and having exhibited all over the world she has many international collectors.

 

Richard Heeps’ seductive, highly saturated colours and sophisticated pictorial structures demonstrate a true love and empathy for this subject matter – be it cool, descriptive interiors, still life, or landscape. His distinctive style pushes the limits of lens-based photography without the need for digital manipulation. The collectable and adorable, hand printed colour photographs combine the best in traditional processing with the latest archival products – from photographic paper to mounting with a 100% cotton museum board.

 

Richard Heeps has exhibited widely, including exhibitions at the Photographers Gallery, London and Kettles Yard, Cambridge. He has featured in the Times, The Independent and The British Journal of Photography.
