Malcolm Glover


Malcolm Glover is a great example of an artist working with Stitching joiners. Stitching is an amazing way to represent panoramic shots of an area.


His images are often packed with action, hinting that the image was not quick snapshots but a carefully planned series of images creating a scene full of life. All together the image took 6 hours to shoot.


This image above was shot by taking one frame every 45 minutes. From left to right the weather changes and the scene gradually gets darker. Unlike the above example in the swimming pool, this one is less action-pact and focuses more on colour. This image shows 'hidden life' within the street.

Malcolm Glover has recently exhibited at the Hastings Museum and Art Gallery and has made a series of work on Allotment Holders, which will shortly be published in book form and can be ordered from the gallery.
