Person
David Stewart is an award-winning photographer and director whose forty year career takes inspiration from the strangeness of everyday life, people, and pop culture. From photographing The Clash and The Ramones to BAFTA nomination, the Taylor Wessing Portrait Prize and fifteen years of National Portrait Galley exhibition at their annual Portrait Prize his extremely sophisticated work takes pleasure in juxtaposing the familiar and the bizarre, celebrating the very narrow divide between the two.
