TREVOR BRADY

Trevor Brady is a fashion photographer who was born in Cape Town, South Africa. His photography is generally influenced by two dimensional composition, leading him to shoot a great deal of urban architecture, detail, and an array of other typographical elements. He brings these images to life through what he refers to as ‘ReDesign’, the creation of graphical composition from an existing scene. Brady frames intrigue through the photography of common objects – stacked crates in a dirty alley, or a chain-link fence decorated with old coffee cups – making them compelling, even beautiful, in the process. This desire to transform subjects also extends past the inanimate world, to the rundown neighbourhoods of Vancouver’s Eastside where both the people and the streets possess an intensity rivaled only by their willingness to express it. It is here, among the scratched windows and littered gutters, that Brady’s subjects truly come to embody the spirt of the artist’s ReDesign.
