The weather hasn’t been kind this year for my on going Holloways project. This was the fourth visit to this location, and finally the conditions were right.

There are now less than 40 copies left of my book, The Island. A huge thanks to everyone who has bought the book, especially those people who have emailed, shared and sent messages to me. Link in Bio to purchase one of the last remaining copies (Some images cropped in slideshow). The Island was conceived as a response to the Brexit vote, but also draws on formative memories and past emotions to realise a sense of place that reflects the times we are living in. The book has an overriding sense of melancholy emphasised by the bleak monochrome imagery and cold winter light, shifting from dark corners, intimate portraits, misty landscapes and isolated figures.
