Photographer, Suzie Howell, is our latest showcase with her series 'Inside the Spider'.
Inside The Spider is a project based on Walthamstow Marshes, East London, an area of outstanding natural beauty and one of the last natural wetlands in the capital.
For the last 3 years, Suzie has visited these marshes on a regular basis and explored her own personal and changing relationship with this landscape.
The work is a representation of what’s real and present, but it is also an abstract portrayal of past events using objects found on the land.
There is a troubled atmosphere surrounding the beautiful, natural spectacle of the marshes and the contrasting feelings of darkness and allure are the basis of this work.
b. 1987 Suzie Howell studied her foundation in photography at Filton College, Bristol in 2005. She then went on to spend a year working in the archive of the prestigious Magnum Photos agency in London where she became inspired to study for a BA in photography at London College of Communication. After graduating in 2010, Suzie interned at Photoworks during the Brighton Photo Biennial and began freelancing at several different photography agencies working as an assistant to the agents and producers. She then assisted various photographers for several years and now lives and works in London as a photographer.
Suzie’s project Inside The Spider was recently shown as a solo exhibition at The Print House in East London December 2017.
