Somewhere in There is My Voice

Ben Waters

Somewhere in There is My Voice explores the ways in which we find significance and engage with the life that precedes us. Highlighting photography both as an aid for memory but also as an unfixed record and tangible object, the images question the line between what is forgotten and what is preserved. Considering how we construct and find meaning in the writing of our own personal histories.

Biography 

I am a photographic artist currently based in Wales. I most recently graduated with a BA Hons Photography from Arts University Bournemouth. Stemming from an initial interest in ancient belief, folklore and prehistory, over the last few years my practice has explored the ways in which we bestow significance and construct meaning from the environment through considering photography’s role as a record and questioning our engagement with the life that has preceded us.
