Paul Hart (photographer)

[1] His work “explores our relationship with the landscape, in both a humanistic and socio-historical sense”.

[2] His books include Truncated (2009), Farmed (2016), Drained (2018) and Reclaimed (2020), all published by Dewi Lewis.

[3] In 2018 he was awarded the inaugural Wolf Suschitzky Photography Prize (UK) by the Austrian Cultural Forum, London.

Between 2005 and 2008 Hart produced a series of photographs which explored the pine forest plantations of the Ladybower Reservoir in the Peak District National Park, resulting in the series and book Truncated.

[6] This initiated a ten-year project which resulted in a three-part series on the region: Farmed (2009–15), Drained (2016–17) and Reclaimed (2018–19).
