Mitchell Lacey seated beside a framed black-and-white photograph of hot-air balloons.

Some things, simply reveal themselves.

Born of encounter, not pursuit.

Venturer Studios by Mitchell Lacey emerged only later. Upon reflection, after two years on foot — across four continents.

Moments in time, accumulated along the way — fragments, made without a larger plan, without ambition or pursuit.

Only with distance, time and reflection, did it later become clear what carried the weight to stay.

Today, a selected few photographs are released from the archive in the form of fine-art prints. Each produced with restraint, and printed on archival medium.

Each work is hand-signed and proofed by photographer and founder Mitchell Lacey before it leaves the studio.

This is,

Venturer Studios.
