Chris Friel
To date, the images I have taken are somewhat random, although critics have identified cohesive themes of "solitude", "quiet" and a sense of "gaze" about my work. This isn't something I consciously look for but is perhaps a result of the beautiful bleakness of the south east coast where I live and the solitary nature of the working process that involves walking long distances, usually in the rain, and shooting far too many pictures.
