My art practice involves photography and site-specific interventions. Recent work further develops what could be considered as an interest in the relationship between man, nature and our surroundings. I have used the landscape and directly interacted with existing architecture as a way of response to the man-made and the natural world.

The latest work entitled 'The Shining' was an attempt to emphasise the romantic notions of the Classical past and create a dialogue between various imported symbols and existing architecture. The introduction of unexpected foreign materials has made confusing sculptures which go beyond the immediate architectural means of a fake ancient temple. This site-specific intervention now exists only in photographs.

The other recent work has focused on the documentation of overlooked man-made objects in the landscape. This series 'Monuments to the Past' has investigated the historical feel and sculptural aesthetic of these unseen objects in the natural world and has connotations with Land art.
