Matt Johnston

I am a visual practitioner, educator and researcher currently based in the School of Media and Performing Arts at Coventry University, where I am Assistant Professor in photography. For the last decade, my research and visual practice has been concerned with the post-millennium situation of the contemporary photobook, how the medium has become central to a small but dedicated ecology, and how it may become better equipped to engage new readerships.

My research interests intersect with photographic narratives, publishing, post-digitality, artists' books and connected learning with a number of projects found on this site providing examples. If you would like to know more about my research, visual practice or teaching, please get in touch -- mjohnstonmedia@gmail.com.
