Richard Wentworth is a British Sculptor and photograph, the reason I like his photography is because he capture unusual compositions. He goes around the city he lives in and finds items that have been left in odd places where they wouldn’t usually be found. I think the fact that he does this, rather than making something up himself makes his photographs effective, as he is making the most of what he is coming across whilst out walking, rather than being specific about how he wants to see something.
“Wentworth's work is an ongoing conversation with his native habitat, fuelled by daily walks down the Caledonian Road and expeditions into the hinterlands of King's Cross. In photographs, objects and lectures he charts the contours of the inner city, the ebb and flow of urban life, the things that change and the things that never do”.
