Originally self taught and informed by early 20th century photographic experiments, George Barker has been working in exploratory film processes for the past 22 years. Mixing lens and camera formats and using multiple cameras at each location, the shoot takes on a theatrical element as each shot is set up. Having worked in film and theater for some time, his experience as a lighting director comes into play as light and darkness orchestrate each image. Barker received his BFA in photography from the University of CA at Los Angeles, and studied on a photography graduate level at CA State University, Long Beach where he also studied art education with a focus in media Arts.
