Belt and Brace uses my immediate surroundings to create a new pictorial language. Photographs of building materials, walls and other structural modifications draw a
connection between physical and psychological worlds. The city landscape becomes a workshop where objects and evocative scenes are plucked from the whole and reassigned a new context in the photographic sequence. The images appear to repeat, allowing doubt to blossom; in this space, I am able to play with photography’s ties to reality and perception. By twisting the act of documentation, the pages in this book create a staggering loop of images that flip between familiarity and obscurity.
