JUNE 2026’S PRISM SOCIAL

Local photographer Philip Singleton will be presenting his work at 6.30pm Tuesday June 23rd at 1000 Trades. His talk is entitled ’The Implicit & The Tactile’.

Philip often works in concrete, resin and other materials, it is the tactile and tangible that fascinates him more than the ubiquitous digital image, yet you will nearly always find a photograph secreted inside his three dimensional work.  He remains, perhaps naturally, fascinated with place, whether urban or rural. He has an MA in photography and was, in 2024, selected as an associate of the Royal Birmingham Society of Artists and is a committee member of the Birmingham Art Circle; looking to give his time to these artistic communities.

He has published two zines and exhibits in group shows 3-4 times per year.

PRISM:SOCIAL

We are fortunate to be able to access a space at 1000 Trades for our monthly Photography socials.

To date we have had presentations from Dan Burwood, Tracey Thorne, Morten Watkins, Oksana Bischin, Rebecca Orleans, Fabrice Millet, Francesco Falciani and Anu Gamanagari, Carl Williams, Patrick Willcocks but we want to hear from you. You may be professional or amateur - no matter as we are always looking for people to talk about their emerging work, or a photobook or exhibition that they really like. In fact anything photographically that you would like to chat about.

Email us on prismphotographynetwork@gmail.com with your ideas.

Dates for Socials in 2026 are as follows.

January 27th/February 24th/March 24th and the fourth Tuesday in following months.
