    Blue Twine, 2012

    The blue rope holds the dinghy firm on shore despite its rough and fraying exterior. The rough timber of the sea craft weathered from years of salty seas rushing at its coat of fading paint. ‘Mahina Bay’ was carved into the stern plank by a steady hand at the beginning of it’s tenure on shore many years ago.

    One Tree, 2013

    This was once the place of a tall and solitary tree. In fact, the last time I was here it towered and overlooked the city as it grows. The site now stands lifeless; barren. A monument erected in accordance of John Logan Campbell’s will for his admiration of the Maori people is all that now stands on the top of this national landmark.

    Frame, 2013

    A frame made up placed on a concrete floor. It was a chance to capture the textures and the rawness of the materials we are surrounded with each day – these things that frame our lives.

    Naenae I, 2023

    One of my first delves into the Black Square in Photography. This will become a prominent theme in my published photos moving forward as an art form.

    The Black Square represents depression; a sinister demon I have wrestled with over the last decade. It rears it’s ugly head at any time, anywhere, to anyone. It blocks your view of the amazing world we live in and ruins things that you usually enjoy or find beautiful. It takes all of your attention and gets in the way of your daily living.

    Moonshine, 2023

    Looking east from the top of the range, out towards Moonshine and Silverstream, Upper Hutt, New Zealand. The remoteness was highly evident, yet the powerlines signalled mankind’s legacy on this land. The wind got up and brought new fresh perspectives on the day’s sunshine.
