Most of my work revolves about themes
of power, masculinity and man’s relationship to nature.
In my images, I create ambiguous tableaus that challenge preconceived
notions about identity, gender and social hierarchies.My most
recent pieces look both outwards, to the challenges in contemporary
society, and inwards, to a meditative state of mind. In these
photographs and videos, the isolation and solitude of the
individuals reflect issues in society at large. The
men in my images are signs for men, trying to find their place
in times of turmoil.
