About The Artwork

"HANGING ON II GOLD unfolds a narrative beyond the apparent spectacle of two Cormorants clinging to the branches of a weathered tree—a tale steeped in history and layered with symbolic significance. Cormorants, regarded as omens of prosperity by fishermen, carry an ancient legacy of being harbingers of good fortune and plentiful catches. Moreover, these birds have long served as symbols of familial bonds, unity, and nurturing, infusing my Bigger Picture series with profound symbolic importance across six captivating images.
The inception of the Hanging On mini-series in 2022 reflects a collective sentiment of enduring the tumultuous global events that had upended our lives. As we navigated a landscape of uncertainties, the series became a poignant expression of resilience. In Hanging On II, the presence of two birds signifies the palpable relief we experienced when communities were allowed to reunite. More than just avian subjects, they embody the collective yearning for connection—more company, more community, and enhanced collaboration.
This edition takes a cheeky twist with Hanging On II Gold, presented on a canvas of gold-coloured brushed metal. As a nod to the times, it playfully intertwines the symbolism of perseverance with the contemporary chatter about investing in precious metals. For those inclined toward a silver lining, Hanging On II Silver is also available printed on silver-coloured brushed metal, it offers an alternative embodiment of hope and endurance
Hanging On II Gold is available both with the birds pointing to the right and pointing to the left. The pair of pictures hanging together making a stunning and eye-catching combination, to fill a large wall space in true style. Hanging On II Gold comes framed in a black aluminium box frame with a signed, embossed and numbered Certificate of Authentication."

About the artist

I create fine art photography that captures moments of stillness and significance, quiet invitations to reflect, recalibrate, and reconnect.
My work is rooted in a deep understanding of the human need for relief and recovery. This comes not only from the natural world I often photograph, but also from my background as a practitioner of neuroscience, where I’ve spent years helping people shift into calmer, more creative, and more constructive states of mind. Each piece I make is an extension of that mission, an opportunity to help others operate from a better, more constructive place..
Many of my photographs touch on a specific moment in time, with historical and social relevance woven into their imagery. Whether it’s a solitary architectural form, the abstraction of water, or the celestial symbolism of the moon, my pieces often reflect the global atmosphere or mood of the moment in which they were captured.
Printed primarily on brushed aluminium, silver or gold, my images are designed to interact with the light around them, shifting and transforming as the day moves. This immersive quality creates space for reflection and visual meditation. There is a quiet therapeutic intent in every work.
My collections explore themes of contrast and cohesion, darkness and light, solitude and connection. While deeply personal, I hope they also resonate universally, offering a pause, a perspective, and a sense of something bigger.
