Robert Darch is a British artist-photographer based in the South West of England. He has published and exhibited widely and his photographs reside in public and private collections. Robert is an associate lecturer in Photography at Plymouth University.
His practice is motivated by the experience of place, in which the physical geography and material cultures of places merge with impressions from contemporary culture that equally influence perception. From these varied sources, both real and imagined, he constructs narratives that help contextualise a personal response to place.
Robert’s work was included in Another Country, British Documentary Photography since 1945, by Gerry Badger and published by Thames & Hudson. 'In Another Country', Badger collates some of the most significant British documentary works’ The Sunday Times.
Robert’s was part of ‘Facing Britain’, curated by Ralph Goertz. The exhibition was a major touring retrospective of the last sixty years of British Documentary Photography. Facing Britain is also available as a book, distributed by Thames and Hudson in the UK.
Martin Parr acquired 39 of Robert’s photographs for inclusion in the Martin Parr Foundation archive.
