Biography[]

Walls was born in 1992 in Sydney, Australia.[1] Walls's artworks have appeared in magazines such as The Washington Post, CNN and The Guardian.

Style[]

Walls' works showcase architecture, public spaces, and people from above. The Guardian has described his work as exploring the "beauty in the minimalist shapes, colours and textures" from above the subject.[2] Walls prefers working with lines and geometry, experimenting with standard design principles including negative space and symmetry to bring out subjects' features.[3] CNN describes his post-production process: "Walls will crop the shots in a specific way to create a different visual look".[4] Aesthetica explores Walls' attention to detail in his Pools from Above series "immediately struck by the tiled steps, patterned surfaces and decoration".[5] The photographer has a keen interest on people within his work to showcase an alternate viewpoint which is unseen by the naked eye.[4][6]
