Not very British I know, but I'm going to mention my current show!

Brighton’s contemporary art gallery Fabrica is exhibiting a very large photograph (almost 9 feet wide!) from my Insects project. It's on public view for 3 months in the picture window of Fabrica's In Between Gallery, facing Duke Street, if anyone lives here or visits the city. It will be replaced by a further image from Insecta in September – also to be exhibited for 3 months.

Insecta explores collecting, museums and nature:
''The urge for humans to collect and classify is instinctive – a need to arrange the world around us into patterns, forming order from chaos. Insecta explores the function of museums and collections through natural history, examining photography’s role in framing memory, the pursuit of knowledge and the fallibility of conservation. The project is a memento mori, reflecting on the life and death of knowledge and authority through fragments of ruined and forgotten collections.''​
