A monochrome study of the nude figure at Trent Park

This monograph gathers 130 fine-art nude photographs made at Trent Park in London between 1996 and 2014. Christopher John Ball works exclusively here in monochrome, pairing the square format with film-based processes and an assortment of cameras, including twin-lens reflex, pinhole, Holga, Diana, and other vintage models. The collection centers the human figure while foregrounding the material character of analogue photography: format, equipment, and the organic qualities the artist associates with film. As a sustained body of work made in one location across nearly two decades, it offers a focused look at Ball’s photographic approach to form and nude portraiture.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Collectors of fine-art nude photography
  • Photography readers interested in film, pinhole, and vintage-camera processes
  • Fans of monochrome photographic monographs

Book overview

The 130 fine art nude, monochrome, photographs within this monograph were made between 1996 and 2014 in the location of Trent Park, London. Christopher much prefers the organic qualities offered by film and the aesthetics of the square format. He used a variety of equipment, including Twin Lens Reflex, pin-hole, Holga, Diana and various vintage cameras, to create the images within this book. "...sensual nudes that pay homage to the female form in a manner that is both graceful and elegant. Very rarely do we come across a portfolio that strikes us so deeply..." - The New Nude Magazine
