Ephemere tokyo photo festival

My work will be travelling to Japan! I’m very happy that my images have been selected to be part of the Ephemere Photo Fest. My photos will be shown in a group exhibition exploring the duality of ephemerality and permanence.

The festival will run from 1st - 12th of October, at Gallery Conceal Shibuya in Tokyo. I really wish I could be there, the programme looks fantastic with lots of great photographers showing.

Currently playing with paper

Lately I have been playing around with cutting up my zines & test prints and folding them into new shapes, exploring different book-making techniques. Not sure where it's going but it's slightly addictive & I'm enjoying it, so if you are interested to see how these open up & transform into different sculptural forms check out my reels on Instagram & stay tuned for more.

MEGA//MONO//LITH ii in C4 Journal

Very happy that C4 Journal took the time to review the updated version of MEGA//MONO//LITH ii on their Instagram account - thanks again to Eugénie Shinkle for the feedback on my work:

“this is a refined version and it is spectacular 😍 all the weird primordial energy of the earlier version but more control over the colour, which spins a cyan/orange palette into a set of images that collapse the magma-soaked beginnings of the earth into its polymerised Anthropocene ending.”
