GHOSTATLAS EXHIBIT

The 'moving image versus the static image' argument is one that can long be debated. Does photography's demand for focus make the single image more impactful?

One man who clearly is of this modern persuasion is award winning British cinematographer Trevor Forrest. Not often do we hear of a hugely accomplished cinematographer setting their mind to capturing an exhibit dedicated to capturing the 'moments that are left behind,' especially considering the near irony of the fact films use a country as context and backdrop to make the film real, authentic and beautiful

Trevor's work entitled the 'Ghost Atlas Exhibit' is a photographic study born out of his travel and curiosity while in locations around the world during 10 years of work. The images are taken from a position of privilege that you learn to find when making a film. With the mind of a story teller behind the viewfinder. This view is close enough to be connected to the location and people in a way that a passerby or tourist seldom has.

The first of the exhibits opened in New York in November 2014 showing images from the first collection (Cuba) along with a preview of the cycles to follow - Japan, Nova Scotia, Mumbai, Iceland, England and more.

Trevor now lives in New York and is currently shooting GhostAtlas Exhibit America (NYC, Alabama & LA). Which will stand in stark comparison to its Latin neighbor.
