Rob Munday
Rob Munday has been at the forefront of three-dimensional imaging and holography since 1981. As an artist he recorded the first ever official holographic portrait of Her Majesty the Queen and exhibits his work in galleries throughout the world. As a technical innovator he has pioneered the development of digital holography and its use for the production of commercial holograms worldwide and as an entrepreneur he has founded several 3D imaging businesses.
In 2005 he was awarded the Saxby Medal, the Royal Photographic Society's prestigious international award for creative and technical achievement in the field of three-dimensional imaging and holography. In 2012 his portrait of the Queen appeared on the front cover of TIME magazine.
The late Professor Emmett Leith. co-inventor of the hologram and avid collector of Munday's work said of his holograms 'they are amongst the most outstanding of their kind in the world'.
A holographer is rare breed, a modern day artisan who melds science, craft and culture to create works of contempory art'
