About The Artwork
This photograph is part of a body of work that considers ideas of time and the landscape and was created in a marginal desert location in California, USA: Wonder Valley. Wonder Valley has been homesteaded since the 1930s. Settlement mirrors the flux of the global economy which has resulted, over time, in an open desert landscape populated by mostly abandoned homes as settlers move away in search of better prospects. This picture can be considered as an intimate and unflinching portrait. The portrait is an enquiry into the ravages wrought over a prolonged period by the depredations of an unforgiving climate that have irrevocably inscribed the ruined dwelling with deep time. The portrait also performs as a documentary picture that considers the relationship of the landscape with the residual built environment.

United Kingdom
I am a British visual artist, from London. My practise is primarily concerned with ideas relating to place, and place-making, mediated by time, memory and myth. My work is principally photographic, but I also make work with moving image, audio, book making and installation. My working process requires patient research of a site’s history, and repeated exploration of each location, an endeavour indelibly inscribed into the work. I was awarded the degree of Master of Arts in Photography and Critical Theory from the University of Brighton studying under luminaries such as Magnum photographer Mark Power. I graduated with Distinction. My work is collected internationally and exhibited widely, including at the Royal Academy of Arts, Royal Scottish Academy, Museum of London, Towner Gallery, and Somerset House.
