I consider myself a photographer-cum-visual artist. I am interested in exploring the role that images play in contemporary society and the ways in which they have, are and can be used to shape it. I believe that the best place for this is within a visual arts context.
I do not feel restricted to a photographic outcome, though I can recognise that I have a photographic approach to my artistic thought process. My work and interests are influenced by a strong social, political and epistemological concern, alongside the belief that art and artists play a formative role in critical thought and transformative ideas within contemporary society. \r\nMy work runs parallel to my interests and as such has followed a progression towards the historical in attempts to understand the world I inhabit and the situations found within it. |
