Monochromatic Distortion

••

The Temporal Manipulation of Rapid Stillness

No images are edited– They are painted within my camera.

Monochromatic Distortion is a collection of abstract photography that is created entirely in camera and devoid of editing or manipulation. It explores our boundaries between space, time, and perception

You will begin to feel as though you are embedded within the visualized dimension of time itself, looking outward at the world.

The perspectives capture what is felt rather than seen, like perceptions of distant memories, dreams and time.   Inexplicably, they evoke sensations that invite reflection.

Upon successfully navigating this frame of reference, returning to our static reality may pose a challenge.

A fragment of your essence may be eternally bound within the dimension shaped by my lens.

Memories, Dreams & Nightmares

Observer

Limited 25 - 2024ref.obs

Exhibited By Boomer Gallery in London in January 2026, Lone Wanderer and Observer are part of the Monochromatic Distortion collection, a non-edited body of work created entirely in-camera. These two images depict emotional landscapes encountered along unconventional journeys.

Individuals who live nomadic or nontraditional lives often find themselves isolated on bespoke paths that are not always understood by others. The visual language of this collection is rooted in dreams, distant memories, and, at times, nightmares. The works explore this emotional terrain—one presenting a solitary figure in complete isolation, the other following an observer of two distant figures on their own journey—together suggesting a heightened sense of separation and psychological distance.

These images were organically captured at the lighthouse pier in Matosinhos, Portugal.

Multi-dimensional Visualizations

Temporal Dissociation

Limited 50 - 2024ref.MDTD

Two figures appear as mirrored counterparts that occupy parallel yet divergent paths, suggesting alternate states of the same presence rather than opposition. The image frames identity as multidimensional, where choice, perception, and trajectory split reality into simultaneous possibilities rather than a single linear outcome.

Timeline Departure 2024ref.MDTLD

A vessel departs a pier that reads as a linear timeline—once a point of restraint, offering comfort and safety through attachment, now a structure left behind. As the vessel moves beyond that familiar boundary, the image reflects a release from prescribed progression and inherited conformity, where leaving comfort becomes an act of self-determination and freedom emerges through uncertainty.

Nocturne Grove

Germany 2025 ref.NG1-4

Organic matter existing in continuous motion, yet registers as still through time—forms caught between constant movement and permanent stillness. The work examines natural motion as a sustained condition, where the trees appear to hold time rather than pass through it.
