Artist statement: After a brief conversation with film director Charles Williams, I found myself working on the set of a short film with a humble budget shot in Dandenong, Victoria. The film touched upon sensitive topics including mental health and adolescent development - topics which I find personally resonate with me.
While photographing behind the scenes, the gaffers shut down the lighting in order to light the next shot. The natural light flowed through a tiny bathroom window in the dilapidated house where we were filming allowing the film’s protagonist (Yared Scott) to be overshadowed by his father (Mandela Mathia).
All these creatures featured at the Cannes Film Festival where it was awarded the Palme d’Or.

Also known as Giclee prints or bubble-jet prints, pigment ink-jet prints are generated by computer printers from digital or scanned files using dye-based or pigment-based inks. A series of nozzles spray tiny droplets of ink onto the paper surface in a precise pattern that corresponds to the digital image file. In dye-based prints the ink soaks into the paper, whereas in pigment-based prints the ink rests and dries on top of the paper surface.
Whilst the term is broad, pigment ink-jet prints have come to be associated with prints produced on fine art papers. They are the most versatile and archival method of printing available to photographers today. A wide variety of material on which an image can be printed with such inks are available, including various textures and finishes such as matte photo paper, watercolour paper, cotton canvas or pre-coated canvas.
