Jon Rendell
was born into an auteur/photog family
in Melbourne, Australia, in 1957 and grew up around
cameras and film. He honed his craft under renowned
photographer Athol Shmith at what is now Swinburne
University (Prahran Campus, Melbourne). He was
always captivated by shadows and finds himself hard
-wired to focusing on the transitory, abstract shapes
that come and go with the available light. For more of
his photography in Scene4, check the Archives.
