Nik Roche discovered his passion for photography while pursuing a successful career in garden design and is a recent graduate from the Documentary Photography MA at the University of South Wales. Here, he has developed a highly immersive method for image making, shaped by his interest in social change and the impact of institutions on individual behaviour.
He has a very human approach to his work.

Nik has three books, the budgie died instantly, pictures from the garden and, recently, as far as they’re concerned we are a normal family published by Dewi Lewis. The work from the garden was a collaboration with seven leading UK photographers in response to Mother and Father by Paddy Summerfield and was acquired by The Bodleian Library, Oxford.

His recent publication was made with his dear friend Tony who lived in a cave in Nepal for three years but, when they met, had a town house in an old South Wales mining village but preferred to live in an arctic bell tent in the woods.
