Through photography, I strive to create images to communicate the complexity of human conditions and issues pertaining to influences in society today. The work juxtaposes ideas and emotions that are commonly experienced in our contemporary culture in an effort to encourage deeper reflection and awareness. Ordinary, mundane common spaces act as expressive vehicles for the human body and mind, therefore, I create a dialogue between humans and their intimate architectural spaces. Most recently the subject matter has centred on ‘Home’, which universally becomes a metaphor for safety, refuge and belonging, but through globalisation/misplacement becomes a transitory place and can be seen as a helpless target of a threatening unknown culminating in complex emotional and psychological issues of adaptation, isolation, and cultural identity.

Gregory Crewdson’s gritty surrealistic cinematic compositions, the brooding questioning paintings of Edward Hopper and the interiors of 17th Century Dutch painters are influential in the staging and translation of my work, which will continue to explore the concept of identity within a place and connections to our roots.
