Monochrome Photographs

My photographs fall somewhere between a visual notebook and a branch of my sculptural work. On my art school foundation course we were taught photography on the basis that it was the new drawing, a new medium for a new technological age. That idea had a certain appeal at the time, it made me feel like I was part of what's new, sweeping away old fashioned ways. Now I value drawing and I also value photography and recognise that one could not possibly be the equivalent of the other.

I love taking and making pictures, composing things in the camera is very engaging and I cherish it as one of my favourite visual tools just like I value my drawing skills.
