Philosophy and approach to photography
Commercial Photographer Andy Rasheed | South Australia
My creativity in practice
I am engaged in an iterative process pursuing a chosen trajectory. I act, I assess, I act again. Incrementally I'm building understanding and an opinion. There are no mistakes, only activity. Each step brings me more knowledge and more time on the tools.
Functional artworks for therapeutic environments
Art is a useful tool in therapeutic environments. Art can affect our senses, the choice of imagery can determine if we feel repelled, or welcome and can offer an expansive option in a confining situation. All of which have an influence on our ability to heal ourselves.
Creating “Nature Portals ”, An exhibition of new macro photographic artworks by Andy Rasheed.
I am very excited to announce my upcoming solo exhibition, “Nature Portals.” A fantastical collection of abstract macro photographs of Australian plants. The exhibition will be held at Flinders Medical Centre as part of their Arts in Health programme and run across February and March in the Promenade gallery A.
The portfolio mechanism
On a personal level, it’s the motivating force behind portfolio development that has had the most profound effect on my photographic career.
How creating art makes us better people.
Making art is a physical activity.
It will feed you in both the doing and increased development of your skillsets. There is a huge satisfaction from engagement in a project and being productive. Constantly pushing into unconventional areas of thought keeps our minds flexible and striving for new ideas; which equals a better version of us.
