About
Based on Mayne Island, BC, Reave is a darkroom enthusiast with a deep appreciation for traditional photographic processes. Alongside his work in the trades, he focuses on documenting the labour and lives that shape the Pacific Northwest. Each of his prints is enlarged on silver gelatin paper and carefully toned—an intentional choice to preserve and honour working histories through film photography.
Objects relating to West Coast tugboats from the Maritime Museum of BC’s collection are also displayed.
