Memories Move, but Moments Are Still (2012 - 2016)

An exploration of how certain spaces change over time. The left shows footage from 2012 in the form a self portrait in video format. The right displays a still image from 2016. Presenting both moving and still images through time show work to show how memories can move, dancing around in the mind, but moments of contemplation are often private, silent and still.

Come Back (2017)

This video is a montage of footage taken from a variety of sources, mostly Film and T.V shows. This work aims to use the words of these actors to create a new and personal narrative, one that considers the difficulty of verbalising our deepest emotions. Themes such as mental health, depression, loneliness and art itself are explored.

This video was exhibited at The Art House in Wakefield in collaboration with painter Linda Pieters.

2009. (2019)

“Solitude vilifies, isolation kills.” - Joseph Roux. Simply titled ‘2009’ - this work serves as a retrospective examination of the beginning of a creative journey. Featuring some of the earliest footage I captured upon the purchase of my first digital camcorder. Ten years later, it provides an insight into the birth of the creative self. Almost childish in nature, I was lured by the sights and sounds of these birds on a picturesque summers day. But there was always something beneath the surface. I can see that now, but I can hear it too in the sounds of these birds from all those years ago. A disturbance, a fear, an imbalance, an impossible dream, hopelessness.
