The resulting photographs reveal moments of distortion and a dream-like digitally enhanced alterations of reality. Sights, objects and figures melt into one another through gesture and bending of an artificial fabric. Detail is lost and abstracted in some areas and preserved in others.

Instead, they locate and reveal more complicated nuances of contemporary interactions.
