- Photomontage series
Limited edition prints (30) - My photomontage series is an ongoing project. I started it from the idea that I wanted to shoot a scene and be able to exclude or include certain elements within my own final composition. Separate images are taken from different vantage points and in different ways, these pictures are then placed together in a montage creating a unique representation of the scene with new dimensions, angles and moments in time. None of the images ever line up perfectly, and they not supposed to. They simply rely on "Gestalt effect" our mind to group and correct.
I want someone to admire the scene and envisage themselves there. Look at the work as a whole and also look at the panels individually as they move onwards, as if taking a few steps forward while noticing the simple details in each panel. The art work creates feelings of presence, movement and time.
