Trained as an artist, psychologist, and photographer, I'm author/editor of a dozen books as well as a journalist whose work appeared in The Independent, Time Out, Sunday Telegraph and national magazines. I've also worked in television films, one of which won Crystal Prize at the Prague Festival. But it was only in tackling my depression that I discovered the magical potential of digital imaging to transform our preconceptions of what we imagine the world to be like. I operate now as a survivor poet, image-maker, and creator of short experimental films.
My themes include relationships, the human form, our natural environment, and entropy: the conception of beauty, its celebration and its loss. Iâ??ve sought to address the inner fears that each of us must tackle: including mortality, the need to make sense of whatâ??s been gained and forfeited, and all those walking wounded in the universal and (some might say) necessary battlefields that litter human aspirations and language. There are few outright winners here, except of the most ephemeral kind. The tiny obsessions of early middle age: the games all of us sometimes have to play - these are my canvas. Yet Iâ??m delighted too by the occasions for humour and optimism that, in trying to make sense, you find along the way.
