Artwork Spotlight
A rose beyond its brief, with a tiny stowaway.
I selected this rose in bud form for a commercial job — tight, uniform, exactly what the brief needed. When the work was finished, the rose kept opening. By the time it reached this stage, it had become something else entirely.
I photographed it again, at true-to-life scale. I used engineering software to measure the curve of each petal, holding one fleeting moment of its opening with as much precision as I could. A small spider appeared mid-shoot and stayed in the final image — a tiny stowaway, and proof that the scene had acquired a life of its own.
One-off and limited works distinguished by hand-applied details, experimental printing, alternative framing and visible traces of process.
I also create custom imagery for product brands, editorial, publishing and concept-led projects. For commissioned photography and creative collaborations, visit For Clients.
