My artistic practice is invested in the documentation of military-related sites, as well as the relationship between photographic processes and the performance of its violent vernacular.

I use photography as a means of recording and understanding the historical and repurposed uses of military sites. Through their detail, the images reveal traces of their Cold War past and draw together their politically-charged origins with their current states of use or decay. The images present these spaces as archives in flux, altered by appropriation and the passage of time. 

The act of surveying these sites has also informed my interest in photography’s severe language. Enacting the terminology of ‘taking’ or ‘shooting’ a photo, my work considers the potential violence present in the action. The underlying themes of control and aggression in my subject matter and image-making, aim to construct visual representations from what remains.
