Richard Smallfield

I am based in Leigh, north of Auckland, New Zealand.

While studying at Auckland University in the '80s, illness (ME/CFS) crept up on me. Since graduating with a BA/LLB in 1988, I've been unable to earn a living.

My creative activities are writing, guitar (mostly classical) and photography.

My main photographic project since around 2008 has been to document my changing rural locality. The reference point I have chosen is that of the backroads. This work has been exhibited locally and in Auckland and been well received. The current essay is in a square black and white format, to echo an earlier era, and is entitled Gone Tomorrow.

Although I'm still climbing out of a relapse that has further restricted my activites since 2010, things are now looking more hopeful and my aim is to return to my creative projects.
