A show that's not a show
so here we are again, but this time locked down, and time itself seems at a standstill. We are afraid of the unknown and we have forgotten things that we shouldn't have forgotten Now, more than ever, seems the perfect time to contemplate the importance of the natural world. As things develop I begin to imagine how the world would be if we put as much importance into promoting the natural world as we do with commercial products. I have created a new body of work using imagery and techniques from advertising campaigns to present nature as if it were a piece of jewellery, a perfume or a luxury item.

So back to share some new work and get ready for a good amount of time in the studio! In recent weeks I have been working with the Photographer Rankin on an amazing commission for Hunger magazine which I am hoping to share soon... Mag comes out in
