PiggBox.'s photostream

I was born in Newcastle upon Tyne in the North East of England on a blustery winters day in January 1970.
I now live in Madrid, Spain where I toil for a global entity and dream of being somewhere else.

DeeMac says:
"Subversive, witty, daring, cheeky, scary, edgy - these are the sort of adjectives that spring to mind when you visit PiggBox's uforgettable photostream. In his 'Still Life' set you find shots of urinals and carefully arranged bones, picked clean. His portraits are stunning, especially the high key nudes that focus on the porcelain nature of female flesh - but I love his 'Candids' too, and his 'Selfish' Portraits. Love the lot, actually!
He is also an incredibly supportive Flickr contact who can alway be counted on to give honest critiques of your work, in ways that can only improve it. Visit the stream of this unique photographer now!"19th July, 2009

Sandra G. Gata says:
"His photos are not only interesting... They are pleasure for the senses of the person who looks at them. You just have to go further, beyond what you can see, and get lost in every minimum detail.
It doesn't matter if it is a beautiful leaf covered in raindrops or a rotten orange, if it is a dog, a person or an eye. If you can "feel" the lines, the curves, the colours and the textures... then you would love his photography.
I do."4th November, 2008
