Photographs record the world - but they also offer a medium for telling stories about it. In this sense all photographs partake of the imaginary. The artist/photographers represented in this show are all bound by a desire to tell extraordinary stories. They may be stories prompted by experiences as diverse as a remembered landscape, a collection of bookmarks, a reading of Dante, or a walk through city streets - but each of these bodies of work began with a photographic encounter and developed into something much more sustained – a proposal about the world – a series of ‘historia’.
