Coming up for Air
"Coming up for Air" is the result of Stephen Gill’s long-term photographic body of work made in Japan between 2008 & 2009. These images create a chance to sink into a kind of fictional aquatic world that somehow leaves you gasping for breath.
Unlike other well-known series by Gill this time the information in his images has been starved or completely denied.

Field Studies
Since 1996 Stephen Gill has been making serial studies of mundane British scenes and objects – including cash points, lost people, the back of advertising billboards and people traveling on the London to Southend train. His visual approach is unique, combining conceptual rigour with enormous sympathy for his human subjects, and has already been widely appreciated in "Granta" and the "New York Times Magazine", among others. His first book confirms his status as a key young vision in contemporary photography.
Field Studies includes an introductory essay by humorist and TV filmmaker Jon Ronson.

Hackney Flowers
Stephen Gill has again used his surroundings as the inspiration for this beautiful and evocative series. "Hackney Flowers" has evolved from his series and book "Hackney Wick". This time Gill has collected flowers, seeds, berries and objects from Hackney, East London, that were then pressed in his studio and re-photographed alongside his own photographs and found ephemera, thus building up multi-layered images extracted from the area. Some of the base photographs were also buried in Hackney Wick, allowing the subsequent decay to imprint upon the images, stressing this collaboration with place.
A parallel series also runs within this finely produced volume, showing members of the public in Hackney with floral details on their person. This is a warm, poetic and visually exciting book containing images that leave an overwhelming sense of colour, emotion and rhythm extracted from a single borough of London.

Outside In
The photographs in this book were made in Brighton and Hove during 2010. They feature objects and creatures that I scooped up from the local surroundings and introduced into the body of my camera.
I hoped through this approach to encourage the spirit of the place to clamber aboard the images and be encapsulated in the film emulsion, like objects embedded in amber. My aim was to evoke the feeling of the area at the same time as describing its appearance. (Stephen Gill)
