Personal: Phil Fisk - Tradesmen
A colourful ongoing personal project by Phil Fisk inspired whilst building his new studio and office space.

This grew into documenting all the tradespeople who came to work on the new studio. The textures and colours of their tools and materials dictated how Phil then composed the portraits.
