In this series I’m thinking about the now.
A pervasive feeling that whether it’s
ecological collapse, the rise of the
far-right, Trump and Brexit, or the Coronavirus,
we are Living in the End Times.
These photographs aim to describe
complex systems, interconnectedness,
a lack of control or capacity to change
things and an all encompassing
dread for the future.
I want the photographs to be unsettling,
ambiguous and challenging just like the zeitgeist.
Enjoy. Or not.

The Study of Complex Systems
Systems, Elements and Relations
A quiet, unremarkable morning. It was the crushing banality that really struck me; the stark contrast between this place and the locations BAE Systems' products are deployed. The difference between here and The Yemen was perhaps inconcievable though a macabre twinning had occurred. I got back in the car and drove away, changed by the experience.
