Photopocene with Giles W Bennett - Episode 26

If you want to discover more about photography projects which consider light pollution, solography, how history is written into the lines of our land and so much more, then Giles W Bennett's practice is one to look out for.

We chat about how Giles found his way to photography via experimental film, environmental activism and even circus performance, while Giles also touches on how his dyspraxia, dyslexia and ADHD are a part of his creative process.

There's also a lovely surprise to celebrate in our conversation but listen along to find out what that is.
