Along side the exhibition, I am launching a new DVD of my current work -

THE IMAGINATION WHICH TURNS BLUE INTO PINK
250 Picture Duets from the LIGHT READINGS series
(Premiere Edition 2015. MP4 format for Mac and Windows. Playing time: 27:24 minutes)

The LIGHT READINGS series is a photographic journal in diptychs. I started this project in 2014 as a way to write with pictures about the city, fragments of my thoughts, or reflection on readings. They are, as if casual conversation with a friend, or brush strokes on a sketchbook. The project’s current incarnation contains a selection of 250 diptychs selected from work made between August 2014 and September 2015.
