Less than you want, more than you deserve

Dinner session: model guests

Whenever we throw a dinner or party for our friends I come up with a portrait idea and have them model the idea. Most of the time I’m trying to keep to in-camera effects, but sometimes I do some retouching. Here I had everyone select a genre or music or an artist name and i created album covers on that basis

Soon: Laser-roasted chestnuts 

Taking the idea from horror movies where inner demons are trying to get out, I laser-etched chestnuts with the omnious message “soon” and spread a couple of hundred of them out back where I found them.

It could be a celebration of a seed springing to life or it could be a warning of the appraoching consequences of the Anthropocene.

Is this the place? This is the place!

An exploration of a clearing in the forest through many different lenses – using drone photography, charcoal rubbings, photogrammetry, and other techniques to develop an in-depth case study of user engagement with this space.
