Market Trader
The load that this market trader was pulling reminded me of the food containers that are loaded onto aircraft. I imagined him flying through space with his goods ready to be sold on Whitechapel market – where I originally photographed him.

Greek Gate
A a photographer I’ve always been aware of the innate beauty of ordinary things. This piece grew from a photograph I took recently in Greece of part of a metal gate. When I first saw it I was reminded of a Rothko colour field painting. Probably that was a good start for the development of this piece. My intervention with the two blue stripes were prompted by the arbitrary spots of blue that seemed to emerge from specs of rust on the gate. The composition was linked together by a collaged torn strip of paper from a yellow bag used in a bakery.
