Quotes Renowned modern art collector Kay Saatchi ‘We try and take what is real to its surreal being. With the velvety tones of platinum printing the fine art photographer Dazeley does just this, displaying an affinity with the innovations of that arch surrealist Man Ray.’
Andrew Coningsby of the Coningsby Gallery ‘Most photographic cognoscenti agree that he is one of the most innovative photographers of the moment.’
Gavin Blyth of Image Magazine ‘Many of the images have a grotesque beauty which is strangely compelling. In his anamorphic work, the lens stretches and morphs the human form creating an effect similar to Giacometti’s famous elongated sculptures.
