entry description
As a street photographer, I take an observational view of how our present circumstances govern our behaviour individually and in crowds. Progressively, we appear to connect with each other only on a synthetic basis. We attempt to mass connect with the aid of modern technology, but in so doing pay less attention to individual connection. I think this is compounded by the increasingly designed environment we inhabit. The codes we see, hear and read within it impact upon our behavioral processes and ultimately isolate us.The figures in my work have been described as looking like replicants. I prefer cyphers. Their isolation from each other serves to emphasize a strange even surreal formality.
