Strips

Accidental micro stories, pictorial jump cuts, random snapshots that suggest the passing of time or a scene in a movie.

An ongoing travel and fine art photography project that has slowly evolved over the past few years, taken randomly during travel photography trips, photo walks and general travel in Cambodia and elsewhere. The strips usually come about by accident during the selecting and editing of single photographs, it is a casual sketching process and only a few of the strips were planned at the time of shooting.

The series as a whole was initially influenced by my film school experimental filmmaking in the 90s, as well as vintage stereoscopic images. Some of the strips go back to my film camera celluloid days so have a nostalgic colour/grain effect that has come out of the negative scanning process.

More recently I have started to make portrait/vertical format strips, moving away from the cinema style narrative to a more pictorial illustrative look.
