The room....

Three lemons...

Inspired by Philippe Otto Runge.

Continuing with my Still Life series...

Same day, second shoot when photographing Autumn Vase.

An elegant hard bound publication of all the images of the exhibition, 48 pages of black and white photographs depicting a long lost Andean city.

This are not a painting. I feel obliged to explain verbally these images: The original still life photograph is lifted, raised to another level, to another interpretation, a new reality. A curator placed this final interpretation in the realm of Magic Realism, a term which is commonly applied to literature, specifically Latin American fiction. And thus attempting to bridge the gap between traditional photography and traditional painting (the repetition of 'traditional' is intended)

On the 26th April, 2017, I was invite with a number of other artists to take part in a project based around Dungeness. "The site is quite extraordinary- driftwood and chunks of metal interrupting the flow of a long shingle beach that turns the corner at a vast nuclear power station. The area is covered with shingle and sea plants and includes Derek Jarman's famous garden" in the words of Tim Cousins who organised this event. This is my take on Dungeness...

The Grave: an afterthought...

"That there must be some epiphany that makes it possible for even the dullest  and most deluded of us to accept not only  what is unacceptable but unimaginable. The absolute terminus of the world. Which will not wonder even for the briefest second what might have become of us." Cormac McArthy
