Lockdown forced my landscape practice into the realms of post-photography. In this project I went back through my old photographs of buildings and architecture, reflecting on them and the photograph itself as a source of evidence and creativity. Everything is Real presents a series of architectural Rorschach tests, inspired by the artist’s three year old daughter Zoë, who defiantly proclaims “everything is real!” whenever her fantasies are challenged. Despite alluding to something more fantastical – spaceships, monsters, objects from another world – everything about each photograph is actually real, an index of a real structure - the only intervention being a mirror, which is another illusory technology we routinely rely on to tell us the truth.

Part of this series was published as photo essay in Herri journal in 2020.

The images have also been used by the Urban Exploration collective as album artwork on several releases.
