Dave Archibald is an emerging fine art photographer living in Middleport, New York. He has earned a Certificate in Digital Photography from Cornell University, and a BS and MS in English Education from Buffalo State College. He works as an alternative high school English and Theater teacher for Erie 1 BOCES where he has been employed for the past 20 years.
Dave focuses on the realism of street photography or the impressionism of intentional camera movement. His street photography displays the lives of Western New Yorkers at work and play through candid shots and street portraiture. In contrast to the reality of street photography, Dave’s ICM images explore the liminal spaces between dream and awakening, fantasy and reality, and stillness to movement.
His work is currently on display at the Hallwalls 50th Anniversary Members’ Exhibition and at the CEPA 2024 Members’ Show. Dave posts his work regularly in online projects such as 52Frames and the 365 Project where he has won various monthly challenges.
