RANDOM ACCESS
This series focuses on a small community of buildings. The detail in each image has been reduced to trigger feelings of memory - of a once familiar place that is almost forgotten, or of somewhere regularly seen but never really looked at.

OUTSIDE IN
Outside In’ was commissioned by Mosedale Gillatt Architects in 2007. The work seeks to blur the boundaries that separate and define 'place' and 'space'.
Each image is a digital montage, where the building we view through the window is the same building we are ‘inside’ in the foreground.

NOT AT HOME
While an interior space can be a sanctuary and a shelter from external danger, it has the potential to provoke feelings of confinement and a desire to escape. Similarly, an exterior space can suggest freedom and openness, however, to be outside risks vulnerability and exposure to danger.
I explored these contrasting notions by removing all means of entrance, exit and communication from the structures, to create a visual tension between inside and outside. As their interior can only be imagined, the buildings seem closed and foreboding, offering little solace from their bleak surroundings. 2005 Photography, Photo Manipulation, Architecture
