Artist Biography

I am a photographic artist living beneath the Galtee mountains in the Glen of Aherlow. My images explore the social, economic and agricultural history of human settlement in the Galtee mountains, and strive to generate introspection on our relationship with natural landscapes. I hold an MA in Photography from London Metropolitan University.
