  • Catalogue Essay

    “My work is deeply tied to my experience growing up in South Africa. It's very hard to separate that, as much as I'd like to think it's based on completely personal prerogatives, it's still tied up in the topography of where I grew up and the constant negotiation of that space…I guess photography, in the beginning, gave me an excuse
    to really go out and engage with that, which I think is what good photography is about. It comes down to an engagement with the world.”
