- PAULPaul was brought up by foster families and he was finally adopted when he was nine. He had been bullied at school and later in the army, where he spent four years serving in conflict zones. He resigned to train as a Clown. Today Paul lives in Stroud, he performs in children parties and occasionally takes on labour jobs. He has got a five year-old son. I have been photographing Paul, fascinated by his fantastic world and controversial personality. He is driven by an unfulfilled ambition to become a famous performer, which blurs the line between reality and fantasy. There lies an undercurrent sadness magnified by his desire to attract attention. Paul has assumed this persona to function within his environment; as if being a Clown works as an alibi to act to the extreme and to seek adventure.
- MUSARCMusarc is a research and event platform based at The Cass Faculty of Art, Architecture and Design, London Metropolitan University, exploring the relationship between architecture and sound. It provides an environment for architects to engage with sound not just as an acoustic phenomenon but as a tool for research and a means to engage with places. The choir was founded in November 2008 and rehearses every week in the heart of the architecture school. It works on a broad repertoire including traditional choral works as well as contemporary music and challenging work exploring uncharted territory in music and performance. It collaborates with composers and artists who create new work for the ensemble and provides a forum for discussion where people can meet with new ideas.

- "Vultures" TrailerTV Pilot for comedy series 'Vultures' Vultures focuses on a sexually diverse host of characters, drawn from different corners of the globe, whose blatant cheating, manipulation of others and inappropriate behaviour serves up a comedic feast. Bold, irreverent and outrageously funny, Vultures hits a comedic tone that makes the viewer wonder if they are really allowed to laugh.
- Sleepwear and Loungewear ProjectI'm on a mission to unleash the power of sleep. In November 2018 I launched a sustainable sleepwear and loungewear brand to promote sleep, slow-living, mindful and sustainability. I believe that sustainability starts from within: sustainable living include sleep, happiness, inner-peace and no-harm to people, animals and for the environment. I have travelled the world to source the finest organic cottons and sustainable fibres and designed a collection that women can cocoon and recharge in, safel
