(b 1983South Africa. Lives and works in Cape Town)
Ashley Walters is concerned everyday life and landscapes in urban places and their peripheries. His perspective waivers between absolute complicity with his subjects, and distant observation; his body of work emphasizes non-spectacular realities. Whereas some images provide tableaus of intimate, inhabited spaces, others render non-territories that speak of up-rootedness, scarring, anxiety and liminality.
