Observing the spaces around me, whether it is the landscape, the built environment, or simply the places that I inhabit; finding that rare quality of beauty in the mundane and the every-day; creating memories that words cannot express.

Over the past three years I took part in Focus on the Foundry, a series of workshops led by the amazing Mass Collective at the John Taylor & Co., Bellfounders in Loughborough, documenting the refurbishment at the UK’s last remaining bellfoundry.

In the next week, I will start posting more photos from the experience. But here is a sneak preview.
