About The Artwork

I happened upon the interior tunnel of the 19th century Aqueduct in Lisbon, by pure coincidence. , A small inconspicuous handle tweaked my curiosity as I walked along a narrrow pathway near the top of this massive 36 kilometer long Aquas Livras Baroque structure. . Commissioned by King Dom Joao V in the early 18th Century.It is today a UNESCO site, as it is the last classical Aqueduct to have been built. Today the word tunnel has an ominous significance used to hide hostages and armaments. Once it may well have served as a sanctuary.

Born and raised in New Zealand, I received my BA at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.Subsequently I resided in Sydney, London and San Diego.I now live in Zichron Yaakov, Israel and work in the Archives of the Aarohsohn / NILI Historical Museum as both archivist and photographer When exploring contemporary architectural images through my lens, I focus on one segment which I subsequently replicate. In so doing the image morphs into a metaphor of itself. Conversely, as a History major some of my works reflect a historical perspective in a modern current day context. These images appeal to me for their texture imposed by the ravages of time, & I preserve them in their entirety.Both genres reflect my passion for geometry, texture and their interplay with color. Recently I have used an illustrative method, to create a more minimal effect, and a suggestiveness than focus of details. All photographs are Limited Editions. They are printed by the Durst Lambda 130 printer on crystal archival paper and are unframed.
