Near Distances
As a viewer of my personal world and the world in general, there is equal beauty in both the grand and the minute. My fascination with details and overly analytical nature pushed me to develop a project that explores the tragedy and romance of our modern urban societies by applying narrative to the inanimate. These images seek to synthesise the subconscious, to create a tangible bond between individual human psychology and inanimate arrangement or function.

Fundamentally I see my photography as the study of our day-to-day environments and an isolation of elements/aspects within them that echo theoretical debates found in subjects such as psychology, sociology and philosophy. Near Distances sets out to capture life’s juxtapositions, its oddities, its quaintness and its absurdness.
