The inspiration for my pieces has evolved from looking at stereotypes. I am interested in such Stereotypical attitudes towards the visual aesthetics of people and places. I seek to transform the utilitarian places into something alluring and beautiful by attempting to bring painterly qualities to my photographs by developing textures and colours as well as carefully composing them. The surface quality takes a prominent part within my work as the high gloss finish emphasises the beauty. My intention is to show the paradox between the high gloss beauty of the photograph and the reality of the subject.
