My passion is in using photography and the photographic process to see beyond our natural vision, to bring into being a world that we cannot see with our own eyes, yet exists right there in front of us. My photographs explore what things look like photographed. I am drawn to the light, colour, pattern and texture that cities are made of as well as the simplicity and beauty of natural form.

Photographs often speak of the past, however I am interested in making images that can be experienced in the present, seen anew every time you look at them. Not an epitaph, not a memory of a time past but now, fresh and new.

Master of Fine Art in Fine Art.
