I specialise in fine art landscapes, capturing in an analogue way. A running theme within my work is capturing the essence of the ‘mind’s eye’, visually showing others my perception of the world as if you are looking through my eyes, using a camera's lens in place of an eye and the idea of the optical unconscious – photography’s ability to reveal the hidden depths and unseen dimensions within landscapes – as well as uncovering what is often overlooked. I also practice the art of Shinrin-Yoku (forest bathing) where fully immersing yourself in nature helps you better connect with it, being able to ground yourself in a technological world.

My project is a photographic exploration that reflects the experience of being solitude within nature, delving into an intricate interplay between nature, memory and humans, documenting my perspective of the word through my mind’s eye and optical unconscious. By documenting this, I am showing that landscapes are more than just a physical space – they are emotional and psychological, shaped as much by our experiences as we shape them. By capturing the ever-deteriorating landscape, I cause a juxtaposition to the title, asking the question of ‘will the bird always sing?’

I wish to go onto to doing a PhD in a few years’ time. But in the meantime, I plan on being freelance, publishing via books and exhibiting my work.
