About the Book
Charlie Gao is an artist using photography as an unbounded and non-specific concept.
Works explore how photography may be interpreted in the widest sense, as a practice that is itself performative and continuous in nature, a lived-in experience that sustains long-term habit and ritual. In this sense it is the motivations behind the photographer which are necessarily of paramount interest, with the camera and image secondary, confounding traditional notions of photography.
