She links photography to Duchamp's 'Infrathin’: a term that describes the fragile events drawn from everyday experience that are sharply defined by the Infrathin themselves, like the warmth of a chair when you get up from it, or a caress. I find it challenging and comforting to cherish the pause in the daily hustle and bustle, and appreciate the subtleties of life.
‘To occupy the lost instant. I try to find a space where I can rest my gaze and feel at ease. Empowering the detail, recovering the sensoriality, and seeing within the capturing of the ephemeral moment that I am exactly where I want to be.’
From my personal work to fashion shoots, I like to explore different ways of looking and finding delight in the little things without the need to give it a heavy discourse beyond being present in the moment, in the little things, and in the gesture. I try to find a home.
