I’ve recently taken part in a commission for Save the Children called ‘Our Lives’, which looks at contemporary child poverty in the UK. An exhibition of the work, which also includes photographs by Liz Hingley, Laura Pannack, Carol Storey and Abbie Trayler-Smith opens tonight at the The House of St Barnabas.
“Our Lives brings a new perspective to the lives of British children living in poverty, told through photographs, film and interviews. Award-winning photographers worked collaboratively with families to
move beyond the stereotypes and capture daily challenges and family moments.” Save the Children

I have a new piece of work being exhibited at the Sifest Photo Festival in Savignano. The series, called Una storia italiana (An Italian Story), is the result of a commission in the town of Savignano, Italy as part of the Sin_tesis project.
The exhibition, curated by Stefania Rössl and Massimo Sordi, is a photographic meditation on Savignano, which explores the region’s shifting economic landscape. The work also aims to function as a microcosm of contemporary Italian society, reflecting some of the wider social, political and economic challenges facing the country at large.
