is really good. Simply state what you made.

The discussion begins with a simple description of your work.

We can discuss your latest version at the next methods session]

A transparent camera

A playful photo book

A short narrative film

A series of photographic experiments with the analog process

A creative destruction of instant photographs

Thematic projects and self inspired research.

Self inspired and not self directed, not yet.

My research needs to be articulated and directed.

If I look back at the past six months I can see tendencies and overlapping interests from one project to the next.

Starting from the handmade focal camera I identified my obsession for deeply understanding how light and emulsion create an image.

The translucency of my camera, and the fact that I built it from the inside out, questions the function of a camera and allowed me to deconstruct uncertainties I had about the medium.

This trend was again picked up in more recent experiments with pinhole cameras and instant photography.
