I'm thrilled to share some exciting news! My personal photographic series, 'Tapestry,' has recently been featured by the fantastic contemporary photography platform, Subjectively Objective.

It's a real honour to have this body of work recognised and showcased by a platform I greatly admire for its thoughtful curation of photography exploring landscape, place, and perception.

'Tapestry' has been presented both as an online feature and as Issue 42 of Subjectively Objective's Monthly Monograph Magazine. The monograph includes 28 photographs from the series.

About the 'Tapestry' Series

This series, 'Tapestry,' stems from a long-held interest in visually exploring the complex relationship between humanity and the natural world. Rather than focusing on traditionally 'beautiful' landscapes, I turned my attention to those spaces often overlooked – places earmarked for human use, currently in use, or perhaps used in the past for residential, commercial, or industrial gain.

Think of roads, car parks, storage yards, quarries, and coastal defences. These are often transient, functional spaces we pass by daily without giving them much thought. My aim with 'Tapestry' was to approach these scenes with the same care as I would an architectural commission or classic landscape view, presenting an honest view of the human fingerprint on our environment. I wanted to highlight the existence of these places, with all the awkwardness and intrigue that can come with them.

Working across all seasons, times of day and weather conditions, the resulting images are often stark, but they remain true to the scene as I found it.

The feature and monograph include my full artist statement, where I elaborate on this approach. Essentially, through these images, I hope to provide a sense of understanding – a visual explanation, perhaps – of how our society interacts with the natural world. With this work, I invite viewers to consider how these functional spaces shape our own relationship with nature and to question the ways we engage with our environment, allowing viewers to draw their own conclusions without an imposed judgment. My goal was simply to capture what exists in an aesthetic way, true to the scene.
