​
Growing up in an age of rapid technological advancement, in-between the virtual and the real, I explore how this permeates our private lives and identities. My subject matter is the built environment, domestic, virtual space and the natural world. Largely uninhabited, my photographs are stage-sets that invite the viewer to place themselves inside the liminal spaces they depict. The colour and scale of my work simultaneously suggests playfulness and control; the results intended as both nostalgic and unsettling. I take a painterly approach: composing, framing and manipulating light to create tonal range before building washes of coloured light to create a seductive yet surreal sense of place. In other works, I fragment, digitally distort and re-compose these, employing the language of the screen in saturated colour and pixellation. The results may be vivid abstraction or kitschy un-reality, but on closer inspection, are full of intimately familiar textures and forms.
