Scottish photographic artist Alexander Hamilton presents his early formative years, sharing the way his engagement with the cyanotype process has informed his art practice, from his time at Edinburgh College of Art, to his program of exhibitions and residencies, through to his work within the field of public arts. This personal history is combined with essays by academics, scholars and curators who engage with the intellectual roots of his work and practice. A comprehensive selection of Hamilton’s photography, including his unique plant-based cyanotypes, completes this beautiful book.
Alexander Hamilton is Chair of The Scottish Society for the History of Photography and is co-editor of the Journal Studies in Photography. Alexander has 50 years of professional engagement in the visual arts world. He is a practicing artist exploring connections within ecology and the arts. His work has been widely exhibited in Scotland as well as internationally in Italy, Poland and New York.
