WILLIAM HAMLIN is a photographer whose work is recognizable by his unique method of weaving his photographs. Hamlin started experimenting with different techniques while studying photography at NYU's Tisch School of the Art. An added interest in Cubism and its theories led him to a double major in art history. It was a combination of the two - the practical techniques of photography and the aesthetics of art he used together to create a series of collages in the style of David Hockney and a series of photographic extensions inspired by Lucas Samaras, which eventually led him to his own technique - the woven photograph.
Hamlin has received numerous awards and exhibits throughout the Northeast. His subjects range from portraits to landscapes, still lives and unique look at water and pools. The photographs are taken with either a 35mm or a medium format (2 1/4) camera and traditional RA-4 color prints are produced in editions of 10 at 13 x 19” and digital fine art prints in editions of 25 at 30 x 46”. Hamlin lives and works in Provincetown. |
