Award British winning photographer John Byford is set to bring some artistic sparkle to Passage 11, with a glittering, photographic portrayal of Helsingborg’s and Elsinore’s unique and lively character.John plans to delight Passage 11’s visitors with his latest photography project- a six-sided, hexagon, ‘Peep Box’. An exhibit suitable for all ages which will be displayed for all to see in Dunkers kulturhus’ foyer.All 42 vibrant images, captured from the cities during a weekend spent in the region, will be presented in this bright red sculpture, to entice people to take a peek at what’s inside, explore John’s vision of the Swedish and Danish cities and share in his passion for photography.John Byford combines unimpeachable technical prowess with an artistic virtuosity that confounds even a non-artist’s determination not to be impressed. Always competent, often offbeat and compelling, and more occasionally inspiring, John has the ability to both capture major situations, or just fleeting moments, in a way that is both original and yet does full justice to the situation.John’s photographs have a beauty that entrances and yet a stark grasp of tragedy that appalls and yet he is just as at home with children playing as he is with bridesmaids caught off guard during weddings.
