Duncan Wright is a Western Australian photographer, artist and the founder of West End Workers Studio in Walyalup/Fremantle. Duncan works commercially across a range of clientele, and approaches to image making.
With a background working in community development, Duncan likes to immerse himself in the histories and communities of his subjects, and places great interest in the everyday people that make a place. He prices himself on creating authentic imagery, merging different ways of seeing and of processing images that draw from both historical and contemporary visual languages.
He has exhibited in various group exhibitions, including the 2021 Fremantle Art Centre Print Award in which he was a finalist. He has had two solo shows: Happiness (2021) at the Perth Centre of Photography and A Resonance, which formed part of the Fremantle Biennale 2021 program. Duncan won the 2023 Perth Centre for Photography IRIS Award for his portrait titled ‘Nick, 22’.
