THE BRITISH TELEPHONE BOX
On the streets of London, 'The British Telephone Box' stands battered and beaten; a disused relic from our recent history, still used by a small minority but mainly forgotten. Photographed on the technology that replaced - mobile phones. 'An Ode to: The British Telephone Box' documents the last ones standing. This is my visual poem.
TESTIMONIAL
"Neil Massey's Photography has his very unique take on Vietnam, the people, the culture and the every day life. I had the great honor to work with him on some projects and it's great to see that he always goes the extra mile for a shot. Usually photos are just a capture of a moment. Neil's pictures are different as they tell a story. They make you curious, you interact and almost having a conversation with them. Vietnam is so rich in traditions and heritage but in the same time open to transform itself into a young, modern and creative nation. I always strive to present and showcase this side of the country and Neil's photography in our company showroom help me do this".

THE VIETNAM COLLECTION ZINE LAUNCH @ INPAGES BOOKSTORE, SAIGON. VIETNAM. SPRING 2018
"His first self-published work The Vietnam Collection has launched at indie art book store Inpages last Friday. A scarlet fighting cock standing triumphantly on a pile of construction sand, colourful sets of plastic tables and chairs waiting to serve workers, friends and lovers, heavily-tattooed young people lost in a sonic trance. What British photographer Neil Massey has seen during his time in Vietnam bears little resemblance to the often seen image of a tranquil, timeless getaway destination. For 6 years, Neil has chronicled DYI metal shows, sipped iced tea on makeshift street tea stalls and wandered around places existing somewhere between public and private"

THE VIETNAM COLLECTION (2009-2015)
THE FILM COLLECTION (1999-2005)
'The Film Collection' (1999-2005) is a body of work photographed on film, using my Mamimya 7ii, Fujifilm GA645zi and Contax T2 cameras.
During this time I lived in London and worked as an editorial photographer shooting youth culture and musicians for then style bible - The Face and the new mag on the block - Sleazenation. 'The Film Collection' captures the youth tribes and musicians at this juncture heading into the new millennium. This was a time when the first camera phone had just been invented (2001), a time when face book and youtube were yet to be launched (2004).
