My works are mostly of interior scenes that are seemingly devoid of human presence, the traces that remain acting as a proxy for specific people or places.  
Statement 
These hauntological reflections mix the past, the future and the present to search for truths previously concealed. The individual works acting like parts of a puzzle that will eventually consolidate to form the whole.  
At times deeply personal, my work seeks to reactivate places and people through the imagery of empty spaces, doorways, and windows. 
Acting as indirect portraits, these works suggest transitional moments; inevitably leading to thoughts of loss, desuetude, and one’s own departure.  

You must not reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell or exploit any works. In doing so, you endanger our relationships with artists, and directly jeopardise the charitable work we do.
