When I took this photograph, I was looking for subjects that contained several layers. For me this gives them a sensation of frozen time; of what was and what might be.

I'm fascinated by the accidental art created by wear and tear and chance happenings and these images, from something we probably see every day, are no exception.

From a series I shot in Japan. I made the images in a very different way to my regular practice. More free, more instantaneous, more playful.

The concept for Accidental Art is the idea that we see things around us that look like their purpose was to be art; yet in reality it is just chance that makes them so. I hope that when looking at the photographs in the series, you find yourself curious about what you are seeing and, like me, feel the beauty of the accidental.

Glide is a collaboration with author Alison Jean Lester for her novel of the same name. The protagonist is a photographer and we felt that including images would be complimentary to the atmosphere of the book. The images are not literal but more to evoke a mood, a feeling, a tangential connection to something in each chapter. I used the page before each chapter, adjusting form, scale, and position to suit each image and the impression I was trying to make.

I love the unintentional beauty of the functional, forgotten and discarded.
