More Sex, Less Death

Overview

Photographer, Martin Smith works on conveying intimate and soulful elements on life. He captures the little moments, and displays them in a way that makes them seem like they are the most important thing in the world. In his eyes, they probably are.

His utilisation of text and collage in conjunction with photography helps give his work a layered effect, where thoughts and ideas can merge and help properly convey is detailed artistic vision. Memories lay upon memories, stories blend into other tales and as each work becomes unique it takes on its own emotional qualities; sadness, melancholy, happiness.

Martin has had works displayed across Australia and was won numerous prizes. His latest collection, More Sex, Less Death, is showcasing at Ryan Renshaw Gallery. It will be on display until June, but don’t get lax; it is an exhibition that must be seen immediately.
