Forever intrigued with art’s ability to challenge senses of reality, Conor Culver combines photography and digital design to create captivating surrealist images. Born and raised in the colorful state of Colorado, Conor is a graduate of The University of Colorado Denver with a B.F.A. focusing dually on photography and digital design.
Conor was first drawn into the hidden wonders of the sea after earning his scuba certification at the age of 12. His journey with photography began soon after as he began to capture an underwater world; a place that still influences him today.
After exploring the allure of fine art photography in college, Conor began to blend different images together. His haunting collection ‘Out of Sight, Out of Mind’ the enchanting ‘Underwater Surrealism’ and “These Dreams Of Mine” highlight the dreamlike realities he creates, using both digital photography and the darkroom. For 24 years, the underwater world has captivated him, taking him diving around the world in search of new creatures and animals to photograph to use in his surreal work.
He currently resides in Golden, Colorado.
