- I have developed a photographic practice grounded in intimacy and observation. Since 2007, my work has been deeply rooted in analogue processes, which remain central to how I see, think, and make photographs. I explore subtle tensions between memory and landscape, tracing how environments hold personal histories. My projects unfold slowly, shaped by attentiveness to atmosphere, chance encounters, and the emotional undercurrents of everyday life. While much of my recent work has been based around where I currently reside, it also draws on experiences abroad over the last eight years. Over the past decade, I have collaborated with two publishers on distinct publications: They were my landscape, released by MACK in 2018, and a second book, She could see herself in the darkness, published by Witty Books in 2025. I approach the photobook as a contemplative object that reflects the layered, tactile nature of memory and time. See all items with this value
