At its core, the artist presents a deeply personal account, woven against the history of photography, from its birth in the 1830s to its decline, and, some would argue, its death, in the digital age, almost two hundred years later. It is a memoir that reads at times like a manifesto, at others like a confession; a final testament to the dark room as both a site for imagination and a physical space for the alchemy that William Henry Fox Talbot once described as 'a little bit of magic realized.'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDark Room charts Miller's work over five decades, shifting from a camera-based practice in his early career to the abstract picture-making for which he has become internationally recognized. Working without a camera, he experimented with the possibilities of light as both medium and subject. At its core is the relationship with nature and place that has sustained his way of life, and specifically with his home on Dartmoor and the cycle of daily walks that have been at the core of his practice for thirty years.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book also features an essay on Miller's work by his friend, the potter, and writer Edmund de Waal, and technical notes by Martin Barnes, senior photography curator of the Victoria and Albert Museum.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1148g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 196 x 250 x 28 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781851246090\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garry Fabian Miller","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44130897854714,"sku":"9781851246090","price":30.94,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1679474624752_book.jpg?v=1679997004","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/dark-room-9781851246090","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
