Photographing the material traces of lived experience
I travel slowly, looking closely at the walls I pass: torn posters, weathered plaster, paint layered over paint by people I’ve yet to meet.
Walls of the World gathers surfaces from Tangier, Paris, Hanoi, Rishikesh and beyond, where the marks of everyday life begin to resemble painting.
Projects
Some of my work is made on the move, in medinas, laneways and markets. Some is made slowly in my Melbourne studio, where water, light and layered materials become ways of looking more closely. Both take shape as fine art prints and handmade books, exploring how impermanence takes material form.
Portraits
Memories in Motion.
I photograph people as they turn, laugh, sway and gesture, letting the camera record the passage of time rather than a single fixed instant.
Faces soften and dissolve, colours trail through the frame, and what remains is less a likeness than a trace of someone’s presence: the shape of a movement, the energy of a moment
Photography Retreats
Coming in 2027
Small-group retreats for people who want to travel slowly and look closely. The first, in Siem Reap, Cambodia, brings together daily photography walks, creative prompts and one-to-one mentoring, with time to settle into one place rather than rushing through it.
