About me

I’m a photographer with an interest and focus on still life imagery using both natural and artificial light, drawing inspiration from classical painting, illustration, advertisements, and cinema. Additionally, I also work with landscapes and macro imagery to explore the possibilities of natural forms. My current practice is focused on connecting my photographic work to my first creative outlet of crafts like Origami. Working between the physical nature of crafting my subjects and the photographing of these I am exploring the possibilities of shape, form and texture and their relationship with light.

Projects

• Tulipomania FallsA personal project continuing my work on photographing tulips as they open, droop, and then finally die. Originally based on vanitas imagery in this series I opted for a more straight forward and minimal design to show the elegant shape of the flowers.
• ReposturesThis project is one of my first full series works of images with the aim of creating a consistent outcome with a clear intention. Moving away from the specifics of complex scenery of traditional vanitas images I was inspired by Carl Kleiner’s approach of making the space very minimal to narrow the focus on the subject and to amplify the use of lighting techniques.
• Origami ShadowsThis series was part of my first brief in my first year at NUA. We were tasked with choosing from a list of binary concepts or creating our own. As I am drawn more to technical aspects than theory or social commentary, I pursued the key idea of using light and shadows to present a subject which I combined with my interest in Origami. Using the work of early 20th-century photographer Francis Bruguière as my starting point I developed this work by experimenting and researching, particularly Chiaro
