Private View
8th August 7-9.00-PM

Open to Public 9 – 30th August 2008
(Monday- Saturday 10am-4pm)

Originating from Cornwall, my work is concerned with ideas of narrative and identity within set up and studio photography. I work with myself as the singular model for the creation of characters and alternate personae in surreal, often heavily saturated, realities with ambiguous and fragmented narratives. Working with digital photo manipulation techniques to create realistic images of the impossible, I multiply myself within the frame in the form of different characters. These may be pictures of myself, but they are most certainly not self-portraits. I work to create layers of staged realities that are at times highly theatrical and that spring forth from a wide range of inspiration, from classical painting to contemporary cinema.
