Stuart Cassidy
Stuart is a creative who primarily uses photography as the means to explore and examine subjects that hold interest, intrigue and hopefully an insight into the self. He hopes to be curious, playful and reflective in all the work he creates, and provoke discussion and enlightenment to complex subjects.
After moving away from an original idea of showing the different age stages of buildings (pre club/as club/as now) due to a lack of archive material, Stuart decided to focus on one particular element of the rave scene/rave culture, which was the smiley face and its association with ecstasy and its role in the rave scene. Hoping to create lo-fi feeling images using a snapshot style, flash and ICM.
