Semana Santa, Malaga, 2007

Semana Santa, Malaga, 2007

details about this work


Robert Michael Greetham is based in Ogmore by Sea, Wales


I work in a variety of forms including painting, photography and mixed media. I am interested in evoking a sense of place and have a fascination with found objects as cultural signifiers. In recent years I have been photographing Holy Week in Malaga as part of an ongoing project exploring ritual, tradition and the enduring power of the symbol.
