lump Photograph - Limited Edition of 1

I am a visual artist who works mainly with photos, videos and occasionally prints. After completing a degree in Archeology from the university of Nice in France, I worked as a journalist in Paris before moving to the Uk and completing a master in Visual Communication from Birmingham. City University. My work scratches the human itch to make narratives. I present the viewer with elements of a story - a flat pack of component parts - and challenge them to assemble things. I take the viewer to spaces at the edge of our perception where things appear in a state of flux. Desolate, architectural nightscapes, moth-eaten urban structures: places that are waiting. Drawing from ancient history, and classical and modern literature, I put facts and fiction on show, like circus exhibits. Presenting the familiar a few degrees off where it should be. Exotic creatures in domestic settings; succulent micro-landscapes; a picnic spot overlooking the abyss. These are postcards of the uncanny. I invite the viewer to construct their own stories, withholding any narrative conclusion and sending them back to confront their calculations. Once upon a time . . . once upon a time . . . ad infinitum.
