A photography and poetry exhibition has now opened at the recently refurbished Montrose Museum.

Dualism: Portraits and Poems is an exhibition by artist Chris Park and was first seen in Angus while on display at the Meffan Gallery in Forfar in January.

It is stopping in Montrose before going on a UK and Ireland two-year tour.

The poets featured were selected via a submission process by the project’s commissioning editor, Thom Laycock.

Chris works with photography and digital imaging, influenced by painterly devices, contemporary print, fashion and art photography.

Born in Lisburn, Northern Ireland, he moved to Dundee to study fine art at Duncan of Jordanstone.

After graduating in June 2006, he assisted a London product photographer before embarking on the RSA John Kinross Scholarship.

The scholarship consisted of three months in Florence studying art of the Florentine Renaissance, incorporating ideas and aesthetics into his photographic practice.

Chris has exhibited widely and has won several major awards including the RSA Keith Prize and the RSA John Kinross Scholarship.

He was recently shortlisted to photograph the Queen.

The exhibition will run until Saturday, April 30, at the Montrose Museum in Panmure Place.
