Phil Crawshay specializes in exquisitely detailed, large format fine art photography, often referred to as “HD for photog- raphy.”
The work represents the decades of Crawshay’s dedicated involvement and experience within the photography and digital media field. Every piece is handcrafted and produced at the gallery by Crawshay. By utilizing many different
processes, he is able to produce images of stunning clarity at very large sizes.

“Image sharpness across the whole image is extremely important to me,” he says. “Rather than just produce an arty composition, I try to cap- ture the entire scene so it can be transported back to one’s own living environment in the most realistic and detailed way possible.”
The attention to detail does not stop at the photography. At the gallery you will see each piece beautifully presented using a process known as face mounting. This involves adher- ing the fine art print to the rear of acrylic, which produces an incredibly smooth surface that attracts the light in such a way that it appears to be almost backlit. The added advantage is that the piece is completely sealed and will never degrade. It is an extremely difficult pro- cess to achieve.
