Artist statement: My photographic work develops through process, placement and the application of various in-studio effects. Objects and materials including paper, glass and plastics are arranged together to create intriguing yet delicate constructions that are then photographed using analogue technique.
The use of lighting, shadow and reflection play an integral role in my artistic process. Using these simple techniques gives me the ability to distort and morph materials into new visual entities sitting somewhere between still life and abstraction.

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.
