I am a freelance photographer and visual artist currently based in London, UK. I use this blog as a place to show work-in-progress, images from recent commissions, exhibition details, and other random bits and bobs.

Please visit www.kateelliott.co.uk for more examples of my work, and www.kateelliottphotography.co.uk for my commercial photography website. I am also one half of artist collaboration KEEM.

KEEM



I have been working with Emma McGarry on a number of different projects recently. It is the differences in our approach to these projects that informs the content of the work produced.  Through our methodology we continuously question the nature and limits of collaboration. And so KEEM was born.

The Girl and The Boy - March update


 
Seven months on, the shop at Hackney Downs junction has changed, and two small posters have been added to The Girl - 'discover amazing talents in your local area' - but The Boy remains untouched.

A couple of weeks ago I was asked to go up in a crane for a shoot I was doing of a construction site. I didn't realise this would involve actually hanging from the crane, in a very tiny box. Well, I survived it (and with hindsight I can say I even slightly enjoyed it). Above are just a few pictures from when I was up there including one, before I went up, of the aforementioned 'box'...

The Photographers' Gallery transformation...

The Photographers' Gallery Sep 2010 - Nov 2011

I have been documenting the transformation of The Photographers' Gallery on Ramillies Street, London, since Autumn last year when the building work started.

The above images were taken from the roof of one of the buildings opposite. I have also spent a fair bit of time taking photos on site, hi-vis jacket, hard hat and all. Here are just a few of them...



You can see more images of the changing building on The Photographers' Gallery Flickr page or website.
