John Maher - Nobody's Home
6.30pm Thursday 9th September
Livestreamed through Facebook*
Join us for this online artist talk with photographer and former Buzzcocks drummer, John Maher as he discusses his exhibition Nobody's Home, currently on show as part of a window photography trail in Rothesay until 19th September.
In 2002, John relocated from his hometown of Manchester to the Isle of Harris, where he lives and works today. His photographs of decaying man-made objects set against a backdrop of stunning Hebridean landscapes. Initially photographed in the dead of night, under the light of a full moon, many of his night photographs involved lighting the interiors of old buildings, vehicles and boats scattered around. In several instances he would return during daylight hours to shoot the interiors of abandoned croft houses he’d visited the night before.
This event is part of Everything Flows, a specially curated coastal exhibition trail, programmed by Street Level Photoworks in partnership with regional venues and supported by EventScotland as part of the Year of Coasts and Waters 20/21.
