Statement:
My work exists somewhere in between the diaristic and the private, the staged and the performative, dealing with themes of voyeurism, the body and the hunt. Whilst using a snapshot aesthetic I try to create loose narratives between the mundane and the extraordinary. I am interested in the human psyche, the spiral of going back and forth between the animalistic unconscious and rational consciousness. Desire, the game of hiding and revealing, the feeling of being watched contribute to creating a space of constructed intimacy.
