As a photographer, my journey began 10 years ago when I started by capturing and developing my images in the darkroom.
I have a degree in arts in Photographic Media.
My influences started with the amazing black and white landscapes by artists such as Ansel Adams's documentary, Street Photography by Diana Arbus aimed to explore ‘‘the space between who someone is and who they think they are,’
portraits and self-portraits like Cindy Sherman, Vivian Maier and Francisca Woodman are best known for photographing herself. But her pictures are not self-portraits in the traditional sense. She is often nude, half hidden or obscured –sometimes by slow exposures that blur her figure into a ghostly presence.
I am particularly fascinated by the tactile quality of film photography, often choosing to display my work with intentional blurriness or emphasising subject movement, while also employing the deadpan style (Bernd and Hilla Becher).
My body of work usually revolves around documenting the ordinary aspects of people's lives, places, and things in our routine-driven society.
Through my work, I aim to establish a personal connection with the viewer, conveying (passing on) my emotions and perspectives on the subjects I capture.
