Dance in Focus
May 2012. Participating at the Dance in Focus project organized by the English National Ballet. Developing a new take on dance photography inspired by Chris Nash. The resulting work was selected for a group show and is part of an ongoing exhibition. The photos were exhibited at London Town Hall, the National Library and continues to be exhibited at public venues around the UK. Cape Verde
During a visit to Cape Verde, I photographed the many aspects of fishing and the community on Sal Island. Cape Verde is an island country consisting of ten islands situated in the central Atlantic Ocean, off the coast of Western Africa near Senegal and Mauritania. On Sal Island fishing is an important commercial and community activity. Daily the fishers would go out early in the morning and on return the community would come together on the local pier to clean out, sell and buy the catch of the day. A selection of the photos was published in the book "IMPRESSIONS Cape Verde". Please click on the link for more information.
