Robert Darch




Robert Darch (* 1979) is a British artist-photographer based in the South West of England. He has published and exhibited widely and his photographs reside in public and private collections.

 

His practice is motivated by the experience of place, in which the physical geography and material cultures of places merge with impressions from contemporary culture that equally influence perception. From these varied sources, both real and imagined, he constructs narratives that help contextualise a personal response to place.

 

He holds an MFA with distinction in Photographic Arts and a MA with distinction in Photography & the Book from Plymouth University. He also has a BA with honours in Documentary Photography from Newport, Wales and is an associate lecturer in photography at Plymouth University.
 

Our collection includes eleven works from his best-known series "The Island" and his "Portrait of Britain, 2019".
