Prior to completing a BA and MA at Edinburgh College of Art, Andy Moxon completed a technical apprenticeship in Radar, Satellite Radio and Telecommunications working as a Marine Technical Officer onboard merchant shipping. His work in photojournalism has been published in Time, The Guardian, amongst other publications. In 2015, Moxon stopped using traditional camaras and developed his own techniques to record starlight. His current research, The Materiality of Light, concerns itself with the visual representation of ‘deep time’ by exploring recorded ancient light written on the print surface and questions how photography records ‘events’ not just immediately, but over the longer time. He is Senior lecturer in Photojournalism at the University of Gloucestershire.
