My photographic illustration work involves the building of collages/ assemblages using both 3D objects and 2D imagery. The collage is then photographed with a large format camera and studio lighting so that the work can be produced in print form.The work has attracted a wide variety of assignments from advertising, design, publishing and editorial fields. I have also created several permanent installation pieces.

Starting in 2004 I have been working on design projects which revolve around the collections of objects. The objects are normally collected in large quantities categorized and assembled in a way that transforms their meaning. My work is about giving banal and overlooked objects a new significance. The finished piece of work takes various forms such as chandeliers, installations, functional and sculptural objects.
