'I am often asked: 'Is it a photograph or a painting'?There is only one answer. It is both and neither.

My work seeks to blur and cross boundaries in "spiritual" and technical terms for an immersive and participatory experience.

In doing so the imagination is stretched, the curiosity is aroused and it gives birth to lots of ideas and possibilities.

It then poses more questions than answers. This is very important in my work.

If the technical aspects were more important and I had all the answers to what the narratives in my work mean, then I might as well pack up and go home'

'For me, my work is an alternative view on the world. It is about pushing boundaries, asking questions as well as an escapist experience.

Escapism that is filled with joy and full of soul. I approach every piece with an open mind and a desire to connect the viewer with my ideas and beliefs and be a participant in my own journey'

'In my work, vision and imagination are everything. I could possess the most advanced and most expensive camera kit and digital software available, but if there is no vision, no imagination, no "alignment with the Universe", then I cannot create great work. This is very important.'

'My journey as an escapist artist has had its moments of chaos and despair. But equally, moments of great joy and tantalising successes. There is no doubt: it will continue to be like that for as long as I create great art. It's part of the course. But my vision and imagination will always prevail, come what may.'
