Janet Hart
Born and raised in Birmingham, Janet now resides in the Black Country. She is a commissioned and published photographer with a keen eye for documenting the historic and psychogeographic aspects of her surroundings. It is, therefore, not unusual to find her seeking out adventures, rummaging in derelict buildings, getting lost in woodland, or just simply watching sunsets with her dog and with trusted camera in hand.
