The idea for 'Postcards To Myself' has derived from a wanting to recapture an essence of my childhood and teenage years. The diaries where I kept intimate details of days out, family holidays and general thoughts have been thrown out so I am only left with vague memories. This triptych is an experiment with a projector in a studio. The idea being that I have these visualisations in my mind of a place where I had spent a lot of time whilst growing up, yet I cannot connect physically to the past. Only through being back in the place itself am I starting to get notions of events coming back to me. Upon reminiscing more and more about the place, certain events, songs, people and places are starting to flood back to me. By stripping myself bare, I am exposing myself to every element possible to attempt to capture the history. Every element can penetrate me, I can allow myself to be consumed by the emotions that come flooding back. By placing myself in the image, it shows how I can connect to a place or thought but I am not physically there or able to pick up the pieces of history. ~ G. Rossington (March 2012)

I consider myself to be a professional photographer who is incredibly passionate about the work I create and specialises in the field of Documentary Photojournalism. My practise has led me to shooting both independent and world famous bands in venues up and down the country as well as shooting professionally at UK festivals. I am also an accredited member of the Association of Photographers. As well as being a photographer, I am a qualified Graphic Designer and Website developer. I run my own online music magazine as an outlet for my music photography, within this role I am also a fully functional Copyrighter, Editor and Interviewer. The last two years have been spent predominantly mixing a student life with professional work. I have subsequently been an ambassador for my course. I have assisted with Open Days and Portfolio Interview Days, I have also visited other schools and colleges to discuss my career to date as well as acting as a Course Representative for my current colleagues. As a photographer I have exhibited in various galleries around the West Midlands, and have recently exhibited in London. I have been published in a variety of publications including the Coventry Telegraph and Creative Review's Feed Section. In addition to these, I was shortlisted in the 2011 Student World Biennial Photography Awards based in Serbia and have had work entered into the NME Annual Photographic Awards for both 2010 & 2011.
