Profile
Paul Vincent Farrell
I was born in England in 1966, and spent my childhood years both there and in Australia.
A fascination with the colours of night and visual perception led me to photography at an early age. I was later struck by the ability of sound to influence mood and emotion.
Interest in the connections between beliefs and "reality" has had a increasing influence on more recent work.
My activities now encompass various media including photography, digital media, sound, video and installation.
I have lived and worked in Australia, the UK, Spain and Japan. I am currently based in Tokyo.
