Introduction

bellevuestudio is the place where you can find out about John Oxley’s creative work. John is both an archaeologist and an artist.

The work shown on this site showcases some of his abstract and experimental images and still images from video pieces. The work is particulalry concerned with explorations of the layering of images within images and the interplay of aperture, focus and light. Images are captured both on film and with digital sensors.

This work generally takes the form of digital prints, digital video pieces or multi-media installations.

Sometimes interpreted as dreamscapes, sometimes as visual impairment, the work asks qustions about how we see, how we remember and how we create stories to make sense of the world around us.
