Diesel & Dust is a personal project that aims to document the UK canal network. The project is an exploration of the 2,000 miles of waterways that make up a significant part of our nation’s heritage as an industrial site, as well as a modern recreational park for boaters, walkers, and others. The project also reflects on the personal experience of living as an itinerant boater, who travels through England at 4mph.

A photographic response to the series of 15 walks that surround the city of London, known as The Capital Ring. This 78-mile route covers open space, nature reserves, sites of scientific interest and more, passing through both urban and rural. In the magical and uneasy balance between the imagined idyllic landscape and the realities of everyday urban living, the city and the countryside fray into one another.

'Leave no trace' is a meditative project born on the anniversary of my Grandpa's passing after a long battle with Alzheimer’s and the walks we used to take in Dartmoor. Investigating landscape as a site to deposit or recover personal memories.

As a photographer and visual artist, I find my inspiration in landscape, history, and memory. My approach to my work is investigative and curious, with a particular focus on exploring our relationship with the spaces we inhabit, especially the landscape. I am intrigued by the way we interpret history and represent it artistically, and how this relates to the social constructs and our collective identity.
