We are very proud to be able to intrdouce our brand new collaboration with MemoryPrints this Novemeber.
MemoryPrints have teamed up with the Imperial War Museum to create a stunning range of prints from the IWM archives and it was these emotive images that became our inspiration for taking time to remember soldiers bravery and the significance of how we identify with conflict through art.

Telling the story behind his work:
Artist Bran Symondson -

'Conflict and art have a much closer relationship, I feel, than we are first led to believe. Throughout history, men and women have expressed themselves through art – with the horror and sacrifice they have experienced, but also in the camaraderie and beauty in the environment and people they might find themselves around'.
'After my experience in Afghanistan, I soon realised how powerful art could be. Finding beauty around me when taking my photographs was an escape from the grim reality'.
'This is what I wanted to partly express in my images…the beauty that is always around us; the femininity present in the machismo world of conflict but not always shown in war zones; the irony of human actions and how something as beautiful and innocent as a poppy can be symbolized, used, misused and mistaken'.
