The view that I am rather besotted with, an ever changing landscape continually showcasing the enormity of happenings that occur in a bustling inner city suburb, stretching to the mountains in the distant skyline. Perched on the upper floor of a high-rise building and blessed to be uninhibited by surrounding peers, the view is exceptionally sweeping and vast.

Time Design - A Life Spent
At the end of 2017 I was involved in research about time. "Lost hours" project was presented and abstract sculptural objects, questioning our perception of the world, initiated many deep conversations among various people. Continuing this work, it was decided to create products that could be commercialized and used as a helpful tool of reflection of one's decisions, thoughts, plans about the future and to improved concentration. The result was 3 time measuring objects, that help us bring forth the abstract thoughts about our perception of everyday life and think about these issues more effectively.

Mirrors of Memory
In this chapter we will look at several questions. What is the relationship between photography and memory? How can a still image/photograph produce or recall memories? What information do we get through photographs and through memories? How do memories transform through language and what does naming/defining memories do in terms of remembering and forgetting? How do the images/memories exist through projection?

Mirrors of Memory
In this section we will look at how our memories are transformed through speech and how they affect the process of remembering and forgetting. As an example I will use a very unique case, the work of Lindsay Seers, whose memory went through a very unusual process.

Mirrors of Memory
If I cannot recall memories of my mother, I experience a feeling of mourning. As if remembering is a responsibility even though I wonder how much of our memory is actually selective.

The calm before the storm
They say never ever mistake her silence for weakness, and to remember that sometimes the air stills before the onset of a hurricane.

Mirrors of Memory
‘HER VOICE, WHICH I KNOW SO WELL’ This photographic installation uses the image of my mother and sister. The inspiration for the title came from Roland Barthes’ Mourning Diary, 1977, where he mourns his dead mother and approaches the question of ethical forgetting which he metaphorically terms ‘a localized deafness’.

Perth Amboy
Evoking the space it lives in. An appearance of a figure. People crowd around, with their cameras and eyes. Hands reach out into the world and feels a bit of grace, while lost in the deep abyss.

In Awe
In September last year, I visited my daughter, who is now living in Norway with her now Norwegian fiancé. My daughter and I spent an amazing 3 weeks sighseeing around the south part of Iceland, and then up the north west part of Norway, to the Senja/Lofoten regions. For an Australian lad, who is so accustomed to wide-open landscapes, these regions were a massive contrast and my jaw almost got sore being blown away by the startling rugged beauty of these two countries.

Tranquility
I have always loved the skyline in Colorado during sunset hours, especially since being single. Trying to capture the beauty around me has been something that made me want to initially be a photographer. This was one of the first images I took that inspired me and made me feel like I could take beautiful photos. It also pushed me to want to become a better photographer.

Dandelion Side Effect
Dandelion Side Effect I was standing in front of a big white dandelion, thinking of my dreams. There wasn't too much of them. Probably one or two. A running girl got closer to me. I pulled myself out of her way immediately. She stopped, looked around, and stared at my eyes. then she opened her month kindly.

Stunning Picture Framing Ideas for Office Interior Design
Many of us today are working professionals who spend hours of our day at the office in our cubicle. It feels good to have your cubicle as it gives you privacy from your coworkers and makes you more focused on your work. However, after some time, you may get bored of seeing the blank neutral fabric on the cubicle walls, which is so simple and standard. It may make you think to give it a statement adding some things which showcase your personality by putting personal items. You can hang anything in your cubicle to add freshness and energy to your cubicle, and you can do this by adding specially designed stunning picture frames for office cubicles and your office.
