Richard John Seymour (b.1989) is a British Photographer, Film-maker and Designer.
During a masters in architecture, he began to explore the fringes of what is usually associated with the profession, using photography to document the incredible but often forgotten development of our globalising world.
Richard's work explores how humans have always adapted to suit their surroundings, and adapted their surrounding to suit themselves. In many ways we are now designing our world to fulfil economic, rather than human, needs. In this scenario, the individual is adapting to a new form of habitat, one created not by natural forces, but by the ideology of man.
Made in China—but then what? Step inside the world’s largest small commodity market, where endless stalls overflow with the near infinite cheap, plastic goods that surround us in our daily lives.
