Peter speaks to Robert Darch about his new self-published photobook 'The Island'. As a self-described “artist-photographer”, Robert was born and raised in the Midlands. In the early 2000’s, he studied his BA in Photography at Newport in South Wales before falling seriously ill for a number of years. After his recovery he found himself in Devon, where in 2013 he returned to study his MFA at the University of Plymouth under the guidance of Jem Southam. Drawing inspiration from his personal life experiences, Robert's work is a profound reflection on the complex nuances of the histories to which our cultural existence belongs. His latest photobook 'The Island' is a visual response to the psychological impact of political events, in this case the resulting social consequences of the Brexit referendum in 2016.
