Everything put together sooner or later falls apart. I start with the fallen apart and reconstruct when a cohesion or visual harmony presents itself…re-create.
I worked for a while as a photographer for an alternative newspaper and magazines. Some years into this I noticed how many black and white prints I was accumulating - especially prints that had been ‘improperly’ exposed or developed - yet I was reluctant to throw them out.
In time I started to cut them up - finding the essential in the sum of disparate parts by conjuring a new work.
