The underpinning interest in my work lies in the relationship between people and place, exploring how the sociological environment in which they exist can directly shape the psychological landscape. Whilst having a sense of concern for issues in today's society, I infuse my own observations of others with personal experiences. In doing so I hope to heighten the sense of social consciousness with an audience.

"At what elevated vantage point must we stand to regard society as having "frailties" and "imperfections"? High enough to see it as a circus before our eyes, a commodity to be experienced . . . But rather than the sympathy and almost-affection that Szarkowski claimed to find in the work, I see impotent rage masquerading as varyingly invested snoop sociology — fascination and affection are far from identical."
