Peter Finnemore, Miryam
Peter Finnemore is photographic artist who works within a context of fine art ideas. His images evolve from an ongoing artistic investigation which began as an exploration into the notion of home, memory, story and history within a Welsh cultural context.
His photographic artwork can be seen as a construction of ideas, blending fact and fiction, history and myth, observation and manufacture.
Peter graduated from an MA in Fine Art, Photography, The University of Michigan, USA in 1994. He has exhibited widely in Wales, the UK and internationally, representing Wales at the Venice Biennale in 2005. Recent solo exhibitions include Recent Acquisitions, Glynn Vivian Art Gallery and Museum, Swansea, Wales in 2009 and Futures and Regions, Clarion Hotel, Sligo, Ireland in 2007.
