Papering our rooms is still a rather nonsensitive business. We ignore the architectural preconditions. Windows, doors and switches tear holes in patterns that actualy ask for a continuity of unbroken surface. Later on, pictures and cupboards are dashed on top of it. So three layers compose the visual appearance of walls – without reacting on each other.
Our conception blurs the border between architectural wallstructure and applied interior decoration. The wallpaper is becoming a senstitive mediator. Contrary to traditional mural painting, we do not create individual objects of art but generate functions that are adapted to the particular infrastructure of a room.. Once the necessary data of the object is stored we can apply any pattern. The outcomes are wallpaper-templates that warp around every hole or discontinuance. Door, light switch, painting and wallpaper don’t bang together anymore, they flow into each other and create a unity – by crossing our usual perception of rooms, a rather bizarre one.

I love old photos. I admit being a nosey photographer. As soon as I step into someone else’s house, I start sniffing for them. Most of us are fascinated by their retro look but to me, it’s imagining how people would feel and look like if they were to reenact them today… A few months ago, I decided to actually do this. So, with my camera, I started inviting people to go back to their future.

This is an ongoing series of constructed photographs rooted in the forest. These works, carried out in Surrey, Hampshire and Wales,involve site specific interventions in the landscape, ‘wrapping’ trees with white material to construct a visual relationship between tree, not-tree and the line of horizon according to the camera’s viewpoint.
