Chris King @christopherking.org · 30/03/2026Over the years I've moved away from photography as a creative practice and found myself returning to physical making in wood, found objects and now textiles.

Chris King @christopherking.org · 16/01/2026Only yesterday I was in a meeting where I was asked about using AI for a brands clothing range photography. I think I kept the swearing down to around 3 "f**ks" and and still got my thoughts over clearly. 110
