Brighton Photo Fringe ECO Exhibition 2022

Brighton Photo Fringe ECO Exhibition

Images from twenty artists selected from open call are currently installed on Worthing beach as part of the Photo Fringe 2022 programme. The exhibition will remain in place for six months.

Photo Fringe invited artists to propose a single image to engage audiences and help us imagine a greener, fairer world. Artists were asked to respond to the question “How can photography make a difference to the climate crisis?”

The selected artists are:

Rhiannon Adam, Louise Beer, Laurene Bois-Mariage, Anne Marie Briscombe, Bill Brooks, Chan Hong Yui Clement, Alex Currie, Sarah Grounds, Gwen Riley Jones, Frankie Knight, Olana Light, Mark O’Halleron, Eunice Pais, Alex Robertson, Grant Simon Rogers, Francesco Russo, Scott Stevens, John Walmsley, Mandy Williams and Elizabeth Woodger.

The images will also feature on the Photo Fringe 2022 festival website where many of the selected artists have created additional online exhibitions.

Metro Imaging has been proud to partner with Brighton Photo Fringe for many years, producing exhibition quality Ctype printing Black and White printing and Giclee printing. Metro Imaging has also been supporting exhibiting artists and photographewrs with mounting and framing services. The Brighton Photo Fringe ECO exhibition is an exterior exhibition and Metro Imaging printed directly onto Dibond material via their Direct to Media (DTM) printing services. The panels are mounted to stone gabons along the coastal path.

We offer the following types of printing

C Type Professional Photo Printing

We have been printing the highest quality C-Type prints for decades and digital C-Types produced on our Lambda have the archival and tonal benefits of traditional photographic papers, with the advantages of digital photo printing. C-Types are a conventional photographic print from a digital file, and as such is the most suitable option when printing a colour photograph.

Fine Art Giclée Printing

We have Hahnemuhle and Canson Giclée Certified Studio staus and with over 30 years experience in photographic printing we use the most advanced inkjet technologies. Giclée is a gallery-quality inkjet print onto fine art watercolour paper. This is most suitable for art illustrations, but can also be used for colour and B&W photographs.

Black & White Printing

We have worked in collaboration with Harman Technology to develop genuine B&W silver gelatin Fibre-Based and Resin-Coated photographic prints from digital files. The Resin-Coated is suitable for most types of B&W printing, and Fibre-Based is ideal for exhibition quality.

Duratran Printing

We produce Duratrans at a quality level unmatched by anything else out there. Duratrans have to be lit from behind, so need to be mounted in a rear lit display, or we can produce led lightboxes, which are conventional photo frames containing the Duratran and led panel.

Metro called it Direct to Media. Essentially this is a UV printing machine that can produce very large, up to 3m x 2m prints on any flat material less than 10cm thick. So we can print on wood, metal, slate and pretty much anything you can think of.

Direct to Media Printing

Direct to media printing is exactly that; we print your image directly to a substrate of your choice. Be it paper, card, aluminium, Perspex, canvas, wood, slate… Our Jetrix UV inkjet flatbed printer can print on any flat surface up to 3m x 2m, less than 10cm thick. To ensure your material is suitable, we can print test prints around A4 in size.

This is a print on adhesive vinyl. The vinyl is on a roll and 1.2m wide, but it can printed in multiple pieces in order to cover a wall.

Vinyl Printing

Vinyl Phototex is chosen for its high-quality Giclée finish as well as its ease of application to wall or mounting material due to its self-adhesive properties. We can print on vinyl using our direct to media printer, in strips of 1.5m x 3m and these can be applied to the wall in the fashion of wallpaper to cover a complete wall or interior.
