Brad MacDonald

Photographic artist and writer working at the intersection of image, text, and philosophical inquiry. My practice moves between high-contrast street photography—made across cities worldwide—and constructed image-making in the studio, alongside fragmentary writing and essays.

I explore perception, identity, and myth as shifting structures rather than fixed subjects, often drawing on historical imagery in dialogue with contemporary experience. My work brings together photography, found material, and text to examine how meaning is formed, layered, and reconfigured over time.

Projects are developed across writtens works, poetry, artist books, photographs and large-scale installations, where sequences of images extend beyond the single frame into continuous fields. Through this, I treat photography not as isolated moments, but as part of an ongoing process of accumulation—where images, ideas, and forms are in constant relation and transformation.
