Sunday and spring is out there at last. Worked on my new portrait series editing and sequencing with a friend who has a fine mind and a good eye. Special! And still time to make this picture, thinking of Richter. What might he have done.....
My pictures explore the strange anthropology of cities. The unusual and overlooked in the human landscape.
I am asking the viewer to question the idea that photographs as documents are complete representations of subject.
I'm interested in the universality of life and the idea of parallel lives - when one thing is happening here, something else is happening over there. The democracy of non-places fascinates me, in the knowledge that inevitably nothing is as it seems.
I work and live between Auckland and Paris.
