I’m Martin Livesey, an artist facilitator and workshop leader, specializing in both digital and analogue photography. I also use video, sound, and projection-based media to produce artwork. My practice is rooted in experimentation, playful subversion, and a childlike curiosity about the natural world. Collaboration is central to my work — I thrive in creative environments where ideas are exchanged freely. The photographic darkroom remains my favourite place to create; it’s where my passion for process and discovery truly comes alive.

I’m obsessed with the magic qualities of light and try to find ways of capturing and creating illuminative activity both as a grateful observer as well as in alternative performative forms.

Whether I’m working in the darkroom or on a digital edit, I’m drawn to the details and quiet moments that bring a piece of work to life. Collaboration is an important part of my work; I value open dialogue and creative exchange at every stage.

Please contact me if you’re interested in anything I do. I’d love to hear from you.
