Projects
  • Descendants of the Land
    Descendants of the LandThis was one of my final projects for University. This work explores the way in which we interpret people via photographic mediums. To represent a person visually, we would commonly aim for a portrait, but what if we used the individuals home land to portray them. The work focusses on the lands in which my Father (Fenland) and Mother (Glasgow) were born and raised and how those two differing environments can represent them, who they are and their heritage by exploring the beauty of those landsca
