process: i am spending most of the summer away from my studio but coming up from time to time to do a little printing, sorting and planning. i started working on a CMYK edition based on theme for an open call which i am happy to say is finished and posted to Spain to be... Continue Reading →

back to image making: i just got all of my screens restretched so was looking forward to spending today printing. i took a little time this morning going through some of the slow shutter speed images that i gathered during lockdown in tipp. i though i would keep the edition small (5) while i figure...

paper making: i took a break from darkroom processes and got started on some paper making. i have been meaning to get back to this process for some time and today seemed like the day to do it. i think i just wanted some physical and messy making. i kept things simple - using off-cuts,...
