The techniques Pinkcombe uses create images that look like photographs of artificial model worlds. In fact, these ''theatre-images'' are entirely real. The model-like images seem staged and ask the viewer to question who is in control of this vision and what they are trying to do with it.
Rik Pinkcombe lives and works in London and attended school at Blackpool College (Lancaster University). Recent exhibition venues include Light Work, Syracuse and the Stephen Lawrence Gallery in Greenwich. In March 2005, he participated in Light Work's Artist-in-Residence program which was sponsored by Autograph: The Association of Black Photographers located in London.
