Images from a lifetime of observation in the
real and internal world, creating a new story.
 

“Briefly Thyself Remember” (King Lear) traces a journey through the deceits and delights of the “real world” as revealed through the metaphor of black and white photography, and the fictional worlds recorded by cutting edge and experimental digital filmic processes.

The images reflect the viewer as much as the maker and produce a new story with every viewing. They also support the notion that photographs are there to remind us of what we forget! Goldfield’s work recognises that there is always a little of “the real world” in every image made by the filmic route, no matter how apparently abstract, - he stretches the umbilical between art and reality to its limit - but never breaks it!
