From a series of works in hospitals and science sections of museums
begun in 2000. I work on a number of series over a number of years
simultaneously. I like to get close using wide lenses and be involved
with the subjects. Work has been published in Dazed and Confused,
Icon, Miser and Now, The Independent and other publications. Work in
PYMCA and Getty.
First book Aishiteru, I Love you published my Imprint 2001. Past
