Pier Carthew

With a background in contemporary performance and acting Pier Carthew has worked as a freelance photographer and DOP for the past 7 years. Commercially his work includes portraiture, fashion, food, lifestyle, event, travel, documentary, live performance, performing arts promotion and landscape. His personal photographic projects are varied - from documenting evangelical churches in the western suburbs of Melbourne, to an exploration of Hong Kong's high-density public housing, to a still life series of his own poo. Pier’s work balances a unique and striking aesthetic with strong conceptual underpinnings and often wry humour.
