About Pete Thornley
Pete's work is mainly photographic, involving three dimensional mixed-media compositions, and public art installations.

He concentrates on large scale images, using a 1904, 7inch x 5inch field camera, which force him to use old photographic processes which are becoming known as 'real' photography.
His images are not re-touched, any marks made in the process remain. He uses found frames for all his exhibition works, and is at present concentrating on a number of works, entitled The Art History Series.
