"In this Manner both footprint and photograph become traces of a presence legible only in its makers absence." -(R.Fisher, 2008)

My lens based practice seeks to illuminate quiet, passing moments that are hidden within the everyday. Employing a monochromatic palette, 35mm and 120mm analogue formats I focus on delicate tones and textures, drawing poetic parallels between human form and the natural world. With skilful framing and composition, I elevate my chosen subjects revealing their subtle intricacies, lines and contours.

​

As someone prone to feeling overwhelmed, I have found solace in walking. Edinburgh's public gardens and parks become small sanctuaries where I can slow down and appreciate tranquility in its simplest forms. I ground myself with a mindful approach to image-making  through intricate observation. This meditative state of mind not only enriches my experience but it also exudes into my own work. Each photograph serves as an authentic lyrical representation of a moment.

​

When exhibiting my work, the rhythmic cycles of breathing, walking and photographing are mirrored through the use of projection. I showcase the intimacy of a moment juxtaposed with the immediacy of its passing, creating a sense of impermanence. By utilising controlled light and delicate fabric, I cultivate a tranquil space that draws attention to the delicate details of the evanescent moments that may go unnoticed in our fast paced lives.
