Noel Myles

Noel Myles studied fine art at Hornsey and Waltham Forest schools of art. He exhibited paintings during the 1970s at House, and the Serpentine Gallery. During the 1980s he turned to photography as his creative medium. His main concerns have been to liberate the still photographic image from the single moment and static viewpoint and to give his photographs physical presence.

Noel Myles first exhibited at the Chappel Galleries in 2012. His subject matter then, as now, was landscape in one form or another. It is predominantly derived from the counties of Suffolk, Norfolk and Essex.

The editioned prints in the current show are made by abutting dozens or hundreds of individual photographic prints. His intention is to make compositions that evoke the cumulative experience of walking through a landscape or looking at an individual tree over an extended period; sometimes spanning months or even years.

The challenge is in drawing together these individual uncut images to form a harmonious and plausible whole.

Included within this exhibition are three unique tree pieces. The first phase in their making was to create a monochrome composition depicting each tree by linking more than one hundred negatives and printing them onto fine art paper that he coated with light sensitive palladium salts. These prints were made around the beginning of the century. Towards a decade later, he photographed the same trees in colour and added these to the monochrome originals.

Myles’ work has been shown around the world; from as far afield as Moscow and New York as well as in the Victoria and Albert Museum and the Royal Academy closer to home.

We hope you will come to enjoy these visual journeys.
