Andy Smy worked as a commercial photographer in the 90's becoming an expert in shooting and processing film. In the last decade Andy has left commercial shooting behind and moved into a more contemplative and personal style of photography with the transition to digital. "Digital photography creates new opportunities to 'find moments' in post. The capacity for digital frames to be processed beyond the limitations of film and paper results in moments that hark back to the dawn of photography - where images appear out of the shadows, as if by magic. The smallest detail can seed a new direction in the development of the image, and the capacity to print onto new media means that the dynamic range of the image can be extended or suppressed to create a desired look or feel. Digital photography reinvigorates the notion of a conversation between the artist and the artwork, giving us new tools to push with, and new responses to puzzle over. The results can surprise and enthrall, no less for the creator than for the viewer"
Andy's fine art images are released in small editions that are completely limited. The size and shape of the prints, and the way they are presented, are as much a part of the limited edition as the original images themselves. Thus, the images are not sold by any other means, in any other format, either before or after the limited edition has been released, resulting in a truly collectable piece of contemporary art
