Biography
Born in East London and developing a passion for art and image-making at a young age, White studied art at Southend Art College, before going on to Kent Institute of Art & Design.

Alongside working in advertising, many publications have profiled his artwork.

White was the key speaker at the 2012 Grid Photo Festival in Amsterdam.

Technique
Working primarily with Lambda prints, a process unparalleled in color saturation, White's spaces are rich in detail but often garish and brash.

Despite photographing human, man-made spaces, there is a distinct absence of people in his images, giving each space room for its own identity and allowing the viewer an opportunity to place themselves within the space. Many of White's images are shot from a direct angle, as if the viewer is standing at the entrance of the interior.

Man Caves
White's first book 'Man Caves', which explores creative expression found in domestic, male-sculpted space, was released 1 July 2014, in Australia, by Thames & Hudson

Tour Eiffel
White's current book project 'Tour Eiffel' looks at the lives of Parisians who share its view and their relationship with this iconic tower
