Photography, Analogue, Mould

I hold a PHd in high energy particle physics, with a focus on the new generation of particle accelerators, exploration of dark matter, new particles, and I am currently employed by the Melbourne University.

However, I have been practicing photography from a young age, working with a variety of analogue cameras and film stock. Back to the Mould consists of slides (kodachrome and Ektachrome) were suffered the onslaught of moulds.

On some images, traces of the original photography remained visible while on a majority of them the shapes and colours were altered in a chaotic, spectacular, artistic way. A biological remix.
