About the Works

My work is concerned with time, consciousness, and the experience of being present. It examines what it means to witness the world and to document that experience through photography.

Time is understood in different ways here, from long, almost geological durations to the briefest moments. The images are not fixed records of events, but traces of experience. They hold something of what it felt like to be there, to notice, to witness.

The work sits between documentation and abstraction, drawing on visual influences artists have used throughout history to understand their experience of consciousness. Here, my photography is not a carrier of objective truth, but one way of engaging with perception, memory, and lived experience.

This feels relevant at a time when trust in images has shifted. We are asked to believe photographs while knowing they may not be true in any fixed or objective sense. The work accepts this uncertainty rather than resists it. It asks whether something must be verifiably true to be meaningful, and whether belief, interpretation, and experience are ever stable.

We live in an overwhelming flow of images. Billions are made every day, seen briefly, and replaced almost immediately. This shared condition shapes how we understand ourselves, others, and the world. The work responds by slowing things down, allowing space for looking and reflection.

At its core, the work opens a conversation about experience itself, about time, attention, and consciousness. It invites the viewer to pause, reflect, and consider the value of being present. To recognise that our experience of the world is fragile and fleeting. And that the time we are given to experience the world is a fragile gift, one that asks to be held carefully and treasured.
