Contemporary Underwater Canvas: Helen & Steve Hall

Scuba divers Helen and Steve Hall - Indigo Garden Images - take an innovative approach to their underwater and sailing photography by presenting it as contemporary canvas art.

Helen uses the couple's images to create textural collage groups in neutrals and unusual full colour panelled arrangements, as well as producing the classic underwater images you might expect from a good dive photographer. This up-to-date approach makes the couple's imagery distinctive within its genre.

All of their work is printed as limited editions on the most archival canvas currently available, a material which produces rich, vibrant and long-lasting colours (a century or more). It is hand stretched over 1.5ins deep frames and presented as "gallery wrap" (image continues around the sides for a cleanly finished 180-degree view), ready to hang.

Helen has produced boutique pieces for a 5-star resort and sold to private clients and interior designers in the Caribbean, USA and UK. She had two successful Caribbean exhibitions in 2008 and hopes to exhibit new material in the UK in 2009. Images for the collection so far were shot throughout the Caribbean, including Antigua, Dominica, Turks & Caicos, Cayman Islands, Bermuda, Montserrat, St Vincent, Barbados and Curacao.
