Installation and install complete - Part 1 Japan (2026-ongoing) an evolving installation that will continue to unfold across the full 45 metres of safety barrier mesh. Through street photography, cyanotype, hand stitching, gluing, and installation, the project examines what happens when chronic illness and neurological change affect memory and mobility. Photography shifts from a tool of observation to one of preservation.

Installation and install complete - Life in Pieces (2026), photographs, resin, concrete, digital media

A multidisciplinary body of work that begins from the moment life continued but did not return to what it was. Resulting in ongoing neurological and physical conditions from a near-death event in 2016, the work examines the disconnect between mind and body and the ways this destabilises any fixed sense of self.
