I capture all my images in derelict urban places and natural environments which, whilst currently devoid of humans, have been touched by their presence. I am endeavouring both to show the impact of humans on the natural environment and nature’s resilience and its ability to evolve and survive despite human ecological destruction.

That theme develops organically within each work. The images I choose and the way I create the collage comes from a subconscious place and I rarely finish a piece within the constructs of the original idea.

 

There is also a sense of escapism I experience, exploring the hidden and mysterious places I find which I endeavour to portray through the fictional worlds I create within them.

 

The miniature aspect of the work also reflects the fragility of humanity. Despite its impact on the planet, the works are designed to demonstrate its insignificance in terms of time and space.
