Down on the Farm - 2018-2023
Exhibited at the Rural Life Living Museum in 2024 this long running project followed four generations of a Surrey farming family. Through day to day farming activities, to family and community events. Providing an intimate view of modern small scale farming and country life that’s far removed from the pages of Country Living Magazines!
Behind Closed Doors - 2018
First exhibited at a tattoo studio in Chichester, this exhibition then travelled to Cranleigh Art Centre
Inspired by so called ‘confession’ websites, these images represent the secrets shared anonymously online, using models and makeup by artist Declan Scammell to bring the confessions to life.
50 Faces - 2017
Exhibited at Cranleigh Arts Centre as part of a joint exhibition called ‘Face to Face’, which also featured photography of animal faces by my friend Jeremy Lucas (presented by his widow Shalini Bhalla-Lucas) and papier mache heads by Louise at Ancestry Heads.
50 faces was the final product of a 2 year project designed to expand my skills at portrait photography by collecting together 50 portraits of a wide variety of people. Some are close friends, some passing acquaintances but all are presented in a effort to communicate more about who they are than about how they look.
At the project’s completion, there were only 49 images as the final slot was left open for a portrait of Jeremy, who sadly died before I could make the promised portrait.
Seed Heads 2015
Exhibited at Salvo Gallery Miami and published in Halation Magazine - this project used black and white macro photography to explore the fine details in the seed heads of common garden plants
