About the Artist
This work explores ideas around the constructed landscape and its intersection between hybrid and hyper-real
models. They are metaphorical and allusive rather than literal. As such it represents places and things we can identify
with but remain ambiguous and uncertain.
This work also considers the assumption that photography's role to record the facts is questioned. In this sense the
work undermines any clear concepts of reality and truthfulness. It questions traditional histories of photography,
mapping and rendering of the landscape.
