Nick Alcocks 'Worlds'
At The Assembly Rooms, Soho, London

About my ‘Worlds’
I have a passion for all disciplines of photography but
specialise in landscapes.
I have been working for some time on the ‘World Series’
of images - eight of which are featured in this exhibition.
Based on my original panoramic landscape
photography, I endeavour to give a new slant to a
familiar view.
My aim is to intrigue the viewer with repeat patterns,
visual richness, texture and colour to provide a magical,
seamless and compelling image. The finished images
are high resolution and are enhanced by large format
printing which reveals even more detail.
I am also interested in the tactile relationship between
illustration and photography involved in the actual act
of photography and the computer manipulation of my
'Worlds' view.
