Mals  2004

Alex has provided images for many corporate events and art festivals as well as visitor centres and publications for organizations such as The National Trust.

His energy and creativity has gained him international recognition by achieving industry awards including 'AMI' in America and 'Images' in London. His multi-media design comes more from a photographic angle rather than pure graphic design and it was this that led him to his love of the projected image.

Mountain stream, Martelltal  2004

At the Tate St Ives he led "Painting with Light", a nine day projections workshop which culminated in an exterior installation on the 31st October 1998 which coincided with the Tate's 'birthday' celebrations. It was a collaboration between the Tate Gallery, St Ives School and Humphry Davy School in Penzance.

Schloss Goldrain 2004

Alex was selected by City of Florence for participation in Firenze Biennale 2003-2005.

He prefers to work with medium format cameras but is usually restricted by the necessity to lighten his load when heading to areas that are often in accessible to vehicles. It is also worth noting that it is when he is 'camping out' he is at his most comfortable, and prefers the solitude of open spaces away from 'modern living'. Therefore people are usually absent in the resulting images.

His has an exhibition in Silandro, Italy entitled "Moments in Vinschgau". Images taken in a 12 month period in the valley of Vinschgau, Southern Alps, Italy. This coincides with the publication of two new sets of collectable postcards, "Valley Moments" and "Mountain Moments". These arew also available direct from www.agrfoto.com.
