“Heaven and Earth”

This 80cm printed round fisheye photograph mounted on 5mm perspex invites you to lie back in the grass and look up — a moment most of us forget to take.

Shot from ground level, Heaven and Earth curves the world into a perfect circle, where wild grasses and scarlet poppies rise from the edges and lean inward toward an open blue sky. The fisheye lens transforms an ordinary meadow into something immersive and contemplative, bending nature into a quiet, almost celestial dome. Earth frames heaven; heaven breathes through earth.

The contrast is what makes the image resonate: untamed green growth and flashes of red grounding you firmly in nature, while the soft, endless sky pulls your eye inward and upward. It’s both expansive and intimate — a reminder that vastness can be found in the smallest places if you change your point of view.

This piece works beautifully as a statement artwork. Its circular form breaks away from traditional rectangular prints, making it ideal for modern interiors, minimalist spaces, or anywhere you want a sense of calm and reflection. It’s not just a photograph; it’s an experience — a pause, a breath, a reconnection.

Heaven and Earth is for those who appreciate perspective, balance, and the quiet poetry of looking up from where you stand.

“Skyward Silence”

An intimate moment of stillness, captured from the forest floor. Skyward Silence draws the eye upward through a cathedral of bare winter branches, their delicate tracery etched against a soft, overcast sky. The circular format transforms the canopy into a natural oculus — a window into calm, space, and perspective.

Printed at an impressive 80cm diameter and mounted on 5mm Perspex, this piece becomes more than a photograph — it becomes an architectural feature. The gloss depth of Perspex intensifies the contrast, giving the dark silhouettes a striking clarity while enhancing the subtle tonal shifts of the sky. The result is a contemporary, gallery-quality finish with exceptional vibrancy and a sleek, frameless edge.

The round composition softens modern interiors while adding structure and focus — perfect for minimalist spaces, stairwells, hallways, or above a console where a statement piece is needed without overwhelming the room.

A modern day homage to L.S. Lowry

"Rush hour at Liverpool Street Station:
A bustling symphony of motion, where every step tells a story.
Witness the rhythm of Londoners carving their paths this Monday morning, January 6th, 2025. Art that celebrates the beauty of life's fast pace.
