A catalogue representing the first forty years of Holownia’s love affair with the large format camera.

 

Holownia’s patient process opens a space for serendipity. As he turns his camera to his familiar surroundings, he pulls from those ordinary views extraordinary elements.

 

From the  catalogue essay Seeing What Matters    by Sarah Fillmore

…retrospection in Holownia’s work is an active principle. It is not passively archival. It is prospective. It confounds labels of tense.
From catalogue essay Eyescape  by Peter Sanger
