‘COMMENSALIS’
‘Commensalis’ is a group of artists and performers from England, Sweden, Scotland and Wales who have joined together to present a programme of visual art, music, poetry and storytelling at the historic Walcot Chapel in Bath.
The word ‘Commensalis’ comes from Medieval Latin and it reflects a commensal relationship, that can involve one organism using another for housing, or utilising something created after its death.
We, the artists, are inhabiting a chapel created for the departed. We are using this house of the dead to house our work. Our relationship towards each other is symbiotic. The spirit of ‘Commensalis’ is reflected in the work we choose to place and perform in this chapel that once housed the dead.
This is an example of the work I am planning to show in the Commensalis exhibition in Walcot Chapel, Bath. To see more please visit my page on the Commensalis website http://www.commensalis.com/owen-martin.html

I am interested in photographing various political, cultural and environmental issues. This work focuses on the sky, looking at pollution caused by street lights. I have tried to take photographs that do not obviously show pollution. I used a digital camera to photograph this project, I wanted to push the camera to its limits in order to use some of the effects caused by digital cameras such as digital noise without using image editing software. I am interested in using digital technology such as cameras and printers to create images that look different rather than trying to emulate film photography.
