After a couple of exhibitions and a short stint as a commercial photographer, I decided to go back to art college to study graphic design. During my thirty-year career as a graphic designer, I started to develop an interest in merging what I loved about photography with the language of design, and over the years have drawn on that knowledge to consider detail and space in photographs that show a strong sense of graphic composition. Initially I was inspired by the many graphic symbols, markings, and structures that are present within the streets, sidewalks, walls and surfaces that we travel on, pass by and maneuver around every day. I often find myself drawn to these ubiquitous shapes and symbols, whether they be permanent road markings or fleeting footprints in the snow, finding in them new and meaningful language. I enjoy observing the ground beneath or the wall in front as if they are giant, ever changing canvases.” http://www.joelepiano.com/Bio_and_Contact.html Joe Lepiano Extent 56 x 83 cm Medium Photography Provenance Purchased at Gallery TPW Text No signature Location Newnham - Building B - Level 2 - Hallway towards Library --
