Untitled, 2011.
My practice is strictly analogue, the inherent depth and delicacy of the photographic medium compliments my endeavour to make work that ventures to otherworldly domains. To make images that ask more questions than they answer and can somehow transcend the surface is the continuous force that drives me; these paper ghosts, making realities unreal. ~ via smile in your face
