RCA Secrets 2013 by John Hooper

At the end of 2012 I was commissioned by BCMH to shoot some portraits for RCA Secrets 2013. They didn’t like the pictures so using a paint roller they covered up the faces… 




RCA Secrets celebrates it’s 20th year and the show starts on the 14th March find out more here. Again it was a pleasure working with BCMH and they continue to produce some of the best work out there. LOOK!

BCMH and the Crafts Council by John Hooper





I have known BCMH through the stylish work my friend Neil Bridge has done with them over the years.  Through the Crafts Council they commissioned me to photograph the designers for the recent Added Value show and to photograph aspects of their working methods. The printed catalogue they produced and the photographs I took for the working methods is reproduced above.

Print Work, Art and Graft, Sam Bebbington and Spectrum by John Hooper





I have worked on various projects with Art & Graft enjoying a long friendship with their founder and Creative Director, Michael Moloney. They recently took on the task of re-branding Spectrum a provider of specialist care services for people with autistic Spectrum Disorders, associated conditions and challenging behaviours.
I had been working with Spectrum on various projects and when asked to organise some of the pictures I had taken of Cornwall for them it was Art & Grafts task to instruct their designer of choice Sam Bebbington at Present Studio to put together the book.  I am very pleased with the way it has been produced and think the simplicity of the design sits beautifully with the images.

Nous Vous and the Canal and River Trust by John Hooper





This is the literature produced for the Canal and River Trust exhibition for which I produced the film below. The red image is also my photographic sketch investigating the repetition of the bollards along the canal. Nous Vous is a small and close-knit collective made up of three practitioners collaborating on graphic design work, illustration, exhibitions and other self-initiated projects.
