Born 1979 and based in Nottinghamshire, UK, Daniel Rapley is an artist working experimentally with photography to discover new and unexpected ways of seeing with and through the medium.

Through probing the tensions between representation and abstraction, his work meditates on photography’s elastic correspondence with reality, its role in shaping our relations with the world, and reconsiders what its function could be, beyond its status as an instrument of representation. As a result, his work often feels more painterly than photographic.
