News from our Members


US based photographer David King, who has appeared in multiple WPGA publications, has just finished a photo-novella called The Palace of Dreams. This unique work blends fiction with surreal photographs to explore meaning and memory, connection and loss, and the way that inspiration creates inspiration and art begets art. Please check out his Kickstarter campaign to publish the book and enjoy the short 5 minute video in which he talks about the artistic process behind the project.
