FLOWERFALLS - New Autumn Zine!

On the occasion of the Outer Capital exhibition with Vicinity, I’ve made a new zine: FLOWERFALLS. This zine brings together a selection of flowers, trees & weeds I photographed on my walks in and around London over the past 2 years, finding nature abundant all over the concrete jungle.

Outer CAPITAL Exhibition

Pleased to invite you to Outer Capital, a group exhibition I am taking part in. For two years this collective of photographers @vicinityhub have been meeting to explore the far reaches of London, to document the city from the periphery. Dedicating one walk per month to the ‘Outer boroughs’ as defined in 1963, we have collectively captured everyday scenes in a less well-known aspect of the capital.

I recently took part in not one but 2 zine fairs in one weekend! Thanks so much to @devonshirecollective and @cubitt_gallery for selecting me to take part in their fairs alongside some really cool makers.

Equinox Zine: Serpent Springs

New zine out now: Serpent Springs!

Released to mark the Spring Equinox.

Documenting a mini-adventure to the coast to shake off the winter blues, feeling the first warm rays on sunshine and the cold jolt of the sea, watching the serpent of the year uncoiling from slumber, following the signs of life in shimmering snail trails and the flames of a bonfire.

Southwark Park Galleries Annual Open 2025

Thanks to Southwark Park Galleries for another brilliant Annual Open exhibition. Literally floor to ceiling on all walls with such a wide & varied smorgasbord of creativity!

I love how democratic the exhibition is, the weird & wonderful sitting alongside the silly & serious, the profane & profound. Always inspiring!

Anasa Zine & Print

Scenes of trees and flowers around North London through the seasons, shot on Polaroid film.

Anasa zine takes the title from the Greek word for breath. Each breath we take acts as a small embodiment of the larger rhythms of the natural world.
