‘Forever Autumn’ took JIm Henson’s Labyrinth and the old brick wall of a local park as inspiration for an image representing the frustrating lack of control children had during lockdown.

In this post I talk through the discovery process that led to the idea for the shoot and the design and colour theory that was applied to it.

A “making of” video for the Fractured Adolescence project.

This video gives a little insight into the methods employed on the project and a few glimpses into the research carried out into the adolescent brain.

Jeff Wall’s discussion of his work ‘Concrete Ball’ sent me off on a geometric deconstruction of some of his images. Exploring compositional tools more complex than rules of thirds, and also get me wondering about whether a deeper narrative is necessary in an image. Can it just be beautiful, or interesting, for its own sake?
