Biography

I am a London based photographer and visual artist, and most of my work is photographic.
Photography is a medium that has always inspired me with its combination of art and science offering the potential to create images that go beyond our ability to see or even imagine.
Creative and scientifically curious both by nature and profession, I worked for many years as both a graphic designer and photographer in branding, marketing and healthcare sectors, also spending several years as an NHS medical photographer. I am a BA (Hons) Graphic Design and have a Post-Grad Certificate in Photography from Central Saint Martins.
Inspired by patterns, texture and abstraction which frequently feature in my photomontage and collage work, I often employ a technical graphic style integrated with other media such as ink, pencil and Adobe Illustrator vector line drawings.
As a member of the Photofusion photographic collective, I explore alchemical photographic techniques including cyanotype, salt-printing and wet-plate collodion.
My work has been purchased by corporate buyers, including The Institute of Physics, Cancer Research UK and the October Gallery, and is available from Gettyimages*. It has also been featured in numerous exhibitions (see page xx).
Inspiration comes from the pioneering work of Alexander Rodchenko, László Moholy-Nagy, Hannah Höch, Stanley Kubrick, Garry Fabien Miller, Eduardo Paolozzi and John Heartfield.
