Explore photography with David Lupton.
————
In July 2023, David experienced a major turning point that profoundly changed the trajectory of his life and work. From that deeply personal and vulnerable space, an exhibition “Beyond All Things” emerged.
Seven of the black and white works in this show are from that show.
This series Beyond All Things is his first body of personal work post-surgery. Shot in black and white using multiple exposures, it looks beyond the visible world—into the cosmic, the mysterious, the space between life and death. The photographs in the exhibition share stories of pain and peace, monsters and miracles, mortality and wonder. David explains, “it’s about being alive… sort of.”
The remaining seven images are from his new work in Melbourne and surrounds, they are from a near complete project on “Time,” exploring the visible to make the near invisible nature of time visible. Its a follow up body of work to “Beyond all Things” and part of the journey of working through some of the issues around the near death and life experiences of the past three years.
