Simon A. Clarke lives and works in Penwith, Cornwall. This terrain is one source of inspiration. Simon has lived in Africa, lecturing in fine art at Kenyatta University. His relationship with the continent is ongoing where photography plays a central role in his creative practice, research and fieldwork. Most recently he has undertaken research in South Africa for the book project Life Itself: Photography and South Africa, (2025) interviewing the late David Goldblatt, Omar Badsha and Roger Ballen amongst other iconic photographers. In South Africa he also developed his own photography essays. He is the author of several art and design publications and self-published books on his photography and digital projects. He has exhibited and lectured overseas and his work is featured in international publications. Artefacts and photographs from his archive are currently in the touring exhibition Africa Fashion by the V&A Museum.
