Interests
My brother is a painter/fine artist, my father was a ceramicist and very good draughtsman. This more than anything has given me a good working insight to art and craft based issues. I have worked within community, educational, and gallery contexts (outlined on my web page info if interested. I have also taught photography and cultural studies for many years. Now concentrating on my own practice within a broad category of 'landscape'. Enjoy books, walking, travel, exhibitions, the ocean (from land) positive, honest people - most things others enjoy I guess.
What exhibitions are good at the moment?
Get out there and see!
The centre of the artworld is
London, my studio, nowhere and everywhere

The reason it bought a smile was becuase I have just returned from England and photographed all the houses I had lived in. there were 14! doing so bought back many memories, looking at your work just reminded me of that week, jan

Dear Pete: Thanks for your comment!!By the way I have realize that i have never done a comment to your work, yet!
Well...
I think/saw/feel...that these photos show us how strange could be the Usual or common life....make me wonder, are the houses sculptures?, where're the people?.
Are these sculptures/houses an estigm to an ancient race?.
Also, think you are not behind the camera, it would be like an automatic device which take a shot when all the life 's gone.Even you.

Excellents works, i admire it.
A huge embrace
Germán

Hello,

No, I did not part produce the plasterheads video. I don´t think we know each other. I am an artist/photographer living and working in Iceland.

I really like your photographs they have a very nice sense about them. I myself am very interested in urban design, prefabricated houses and prefabricated patios. I did a longterm research project on the newly built edges of suburbia here in Reykjavík.
