Benji Reid: photographic dance to the tune of our turbulent times

Benji Reid is a photographer, performer and digital artist. He describes his art as the space ” where theatre, choreography and photography meet.”

In the 1970’s, I stumbled across the films, music, and voices which spoke to me in pictures. For me art was a means to set up hyper-realities, conversations, and to curate my curiosities.

There is dance in everything, but there is no dance without dramatic tension, and there is no image without soul. These are the substratum of the Choreo Photolist. Within these walls lay a playfulness of elements,  hearts in exploding backpacks, goldfish bowls as Astronaut helmets balloons as transportation. but the body in space has always been my weapon of choice my voice here I attempt to tell static stories that explore issue around mental heath, freedom and love of self. The aim is to create without boundaries,  slipping from the black dreamscape to the political. The Choreo Photolist is a photographic dance to the tune of our turbulent times.
