The AK47 is one of the most recognisable firearms in human history. Through his artwork and experiences, Bran Symondson is altering what it’s recognised for.

An artist, photographer and entrepreneur with military experience, his work challenges perceptions through his emotive photos and intricately adorned, decommissioned weapons - each a rousing anti-war statement.

It’s a privilege to unpack Bran’s creative mind, and detail the experiences that influence his work, on this week's episode of Extrology.

Lee and Bran discuss:

  • Bran’s introduction to the wilder disciplines of photography
  • Military experiences, and the opportunities to document his journey
  • Messages and motives rife throughout Bran’s AK47 work
  • Art’s opportunity to become a voice for global issues
  • The impact of the digitisation and democratisation of art
