“Re-imagining landscape art from a photography point of view has been a mission of mine for a long time. Often photographers simply document a landscape but I want to inscribe my own thoughts, feelings and aesthetic into my work.
I live in Central Otago, New Zealand which provides a dramatic canvas but I like exploring the region’s flip-side of subdued softness and quiet muted ambience. Perhaps this is a reflection of my personality and it finds its way into my art. My work is evolving into making compositionally confident images in a balanced, clean, open style that makes full use of contemporary photography technique. Photography is my chosen medium and is a tool to help me make art using colour, shapes texture, pattern and graphics for a feeling or message.
