I am a photographer and researcher based in Basel, Switzerland working at the intersection of image-making, memory and emerging technologies. My practice examines how digital systems, particularly AI, influence the way we read, store and transform images, and the impact this has on personal and cultural narratives. I work across photography, video, generative code and material processes, exploring how meaning drifts as human archives encounter algorithmic interpretation.
My recent projects, including Host’s Blind Spot and the wider body of work developed during my BA (Hons) Photography with the Open College of the Arts, focus on the quiet but persistent ways machine systems reshape what we remember and how we see. These works combine manipulated photographs, live generative systems and resin-based artefacts to explore the tension between the digital and the embodied.
Alongside this conceptual direction, I maintain a long-standing aesthetic practice grounded in landscape, architectural and abstract photography. This strand of my work reflects a commitment to place, form and careful observation, shaped by extensive travel and a continued interest in the still image as a site of clarity and attention.
I exhibit both online and in physical spaces, and my work forms part of an evolving investigation into the role of photography in an era of accelerated technological change.
