Authentic Lensed Photography. Light is the driving force behind the work. Technically no 2 images are the same, are many variables, as they are all in camera exposures, layered with many different lights. This further reinforces the underlying theme of all the work, in all its impermanence and transient nature and it is about finding beauty and release and acceptance in imperfection. In the spirit of ‘Wabi-sabi’ this process means that no two images are alike. Each work uniquely captures the imperfect and transient.
