Peter Stewart is among a rare breed of modern artists, breaking the mold with his conceptual based imagery and unique style of fine art travel photography.

 

With only ten years behind the camera, Peter has slowly built up a reputable portfolio of award-winning images and established himself alongside some of the worlds best-known travel photographers.

 

Entirely self-taught, Peter’s interest in photography started during his early solo backpacking trips around South-East Asia, where the desire to document both the beauty and chaos of its landmarks and sprawling megacities took hold.

 

Born in Australia, but with half his life spent living in England, he later made the move back to his home city of Perth in his mid-twenties. In 2014, he decided to fully embrace the nomadic lifestyle and sold all of his possessions (minus the cameras naturally), in order to travel almost exclusively full-time. Subsequently moving to Hong Kong as a second home upon which to base his movements around Asia. It was here that Peter cemented his style of hyperreal architecture photography, finding inspiration in the patterns and shapes of the high rise estates strewn all across the city. Later in 2018, Peter migrated again to Hoi An in Central Vietnam, which is now his current base in-between travels.

 

Peter's images often focus on themes involving a mass scale, with the underlying desire being to showcase the urban sprawl within Asia's megacities.

 

Fully embracing a completely digital workflow to produce and manipulate his images, Peter continues to strive for that look he says hinges on the edge of fantasy and reality. The use of vibrant color and enhanced texture are just some of the hallmarks of his images. Surprisingly, he is also a vocal supporter of traditional film photography. Still opting to work with 35mm film for many of his personal projects and street photography.

Your pictures just blow me out of the water. I could look at your stuff all day long. Of course, it doesn't hurt to live in a local such as Hong Kong (and I am sure to have a creative mind) to produce such pictures as you continually do.
