My current work explores my relationship with the photograph, and what it means to create images, in the context of the overwhelming volume that we consume every day. Through using analogue photography as a mechanism to slow me down, the photograph became more about the encounter, the sense of the moment captured, than the image itself. Light and warmth play a large role in my personal practice of stillness. The light I seek to capture within my photographs, and the fleeting, temporal moments of calm that it creates, counteract the sensations of anxiety that I attach to the ubiquity of the photograph. Thinking about how I experienced the space and light when shooting, I aim to recreate these moments around the space; encountering, finding, noticing, happening-upon these moments of calm, that often go unnoticed.
