Alan Brydon Alan Brydon Art

Alan, born and educated in Scotland, made his home in New Zealand several decades ago. His lifetime involvement with photography preceded his veterinary clinical career and has gained an increasing role to become the dominant presence in his life path.


His photographic genre is fine art, expressing the human body as sculptural form and employing a poetic eye to create a spectrum of images ranging from organic abstraction and minimalist gesture to fantasy bodyscapes. His perspective on life acknowledges our humanity and an awareness that for a while we get to use the body as a vehicle, amazing in its form and function, exquisitely sensual yet so vulnerable to age and injury.

Alan’s artistic images have been well received at exhibition in New Zealand and Australia resulting in sales to private collections in USA, Canada, Thailand, Malta, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand. Examples of his work can be found on his website: www.alanbrydon.com
