“My work explores complexities within the urban environment, shifting between straight photography and digital manipulation. I am fascinated by the way in which the place I live in functions, and the constant changing appearance of my surroundings. My work often isolates visual and spatial congestion within the built environment and creates hyper realistic views of my immediate habitat. Being a foreigner both in my chosen home and my birth home, I view my surroundings with a conflicted gaze of familiar yet unknown.”
