“In ‘pause’, the work depicts the juxtaposition of powerful machines which are symbols of advancement and technology against nature which is widely accepted as precious and untouched. The medium of photography provides a visual dichotomy of reality and illusion through the aesthetics of plane and tree and their spatial relationship. Planes behind trees as individual objects are familiar and common, but when combined and interrelated, the viewer moves to a new space to behold the unexpected.”

"Advertising is something that surrounds us and much has been written about its impact on us. I am interested in the way advertising affects our public spaces and how mass media defines our personal tastes. By focusing on the surface of those sliding street billboards these images are a comment on the superficiality of the medium as well as its pervasiveness."

"The Liquid Showdowns"


"My work can be described as large modern still-lives, focusing on narratives behind the idea of "Lost and Found".
Over time, the Regent's Canal waterway became a fascinating element of my surroundings and a daily landscape of my life in east London. I am interrested in the discared objects floating in the water. I used the process of isolating them in an inky void, which gives to each of these curious items a new meaning by capturing this odd and unique moment where they are out of their usual context, drifting unrealistically in a dark flow. The images are suspended in moments of uncertainty, leaving sensations of calm. The obvious confrontation of two different worlds appears. When nature suddenly encounters urbanity, it creates a confusing space. It is a combination of an entirely pure element with its own wildlife in direct breakdown with the products of mankind, which makes it a poetic, hybrid territory.
