Artworks by Justice Hyde

Justice Hyde is a photographic artist based in North West England. Largely self-taught, his work incorporates multiple strands: explorations of mortality through abstracted images of deteriorated surfaces both natural and man-made; themes of psychogeography, resonance and dissonance in the urban, suburban and rural landscape; and examinations of sexuality, identity and self-actualisation amid the fluid moralities and new paradigms of the data age. The strands are unified by an interest in the convergence, divergence and intersection of perception and reality.

Having begun in photography by using, developing and printing black and white film, he moved to digital processes, but since 2014 has increasingly returned to analogue photography, with 35mm, medium format and Polaroid film now central to his practice, alongside DSLR and even smartphone cameras. In most cases little or no post-processing is used. This diverse approach and discipline ensure that the image never becomes secondary to the tool or technique.

Most of the images here are available in various sizes, as either unmounted prints on museum-quality paper, and ready-to-hang options of aluminium mounting or gallery wrap canvas. Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions or to request a size or finish option not listed.
