[VIDEOS]
I have always felt that my videos are just an extention of my photography work. All videos here are still looking at the themes of adoption. Currently I turn to video more than any other medium and is usually a conduit to my performances. In 2007 I did a short City & Guilds production course, however the nature of my video does tend to be single take or simple edits, in the future I hope to work on a more ambitious video pieces.

Birthdays have always been a strange time for me. Around the time of my birthdays there is a tension and highly mixed feelings of celebration and loss. I always wonder if my birthmother remembers me. This piece was 24 birthdays.
This is only a sample of a much longer piece.
