Statement ~
"What lasts longer, a memory or a feeling.
Nostalgic stories told through the fleeting frames of film give birth to my aesthetic. My work sets out to create a version of reality, to escape modern tragedy of the human condition. As is photography, just a collection of past moments presented to the future.
Through timeless aesthetic and creative compositions using the black and white medium I disclose a ménage à trois of light, form and shadows to understand my own romanticist approach to life and my relation to society. To grasp the day-to-day magic that surrounds us, moments that feel intangible, like the dying rays of the sun or the deep sensitivities of human connection.
I address matters of the heart and the head through a visual dialog of events that mirror past and present cultural and environmental fashions.
I wish for others to see the world as it could be seen."

" Luké has a unique outlook. The photographic tools that Luke chooses and the way in which he utilises them help sculpt a somewhat avant grade repertoire of artistic images. I feel his work provides a connective and reflective visual script that I look forward to continue watching grow in the photographic and film industry. "

Simmonds also has a genuinely international outlook in his art praxis both due to his educational and professional track record, as well as his personal history. "
