Jo Teasdale: My Adopted Family and Other Projects

I am a contemporary photographer based in Brighton. My work follows two distinct paths:

One is project-based work, usually with a conceptual influence and the other is street photography.

I enjoy the immediacy and quirky unexpected elements of street life whilst my conceptual work is

an artistic form of self-expression, often poignant and edgy, often unveiling elements of our human

nature. My aim in all my photography is to provide a strong narrative or provoke an emotional response

from the viewer. I wish to engage the audience to participate in the stories that unfold around me
