Information

My work comes from a desire to preserve what can’t be saved. I want to remember the feeling of the sun on my face, crackling leaves under my feet, the cold wind on my arms through the paper. I use earth, rain, sunshine, leaves, grasses, petals, flowers, seeds, hair, bodies, and work with them to produce a memory and a new energy. My practice has developed from my excitement at the early photographic image makers, their ethereal creations, the hazy atmospheric quality of light and a curiosity about how the chemicals react to light. I enjoy the imperfection of the technique which reminds me of the unknown possibilities in the photographic moment and the mystery of the process.

I studied photography at Central Saint Martins. I work in London and Somerset and am represented by Tag Fine Arts in London.

My work will be on show during Somerset Open Studios as part of Somerset Art Works on 13 and 14 September, and again on 27 and 28 September, at The Temple of Pan, Goathurst, TA5 2DH.
