Duos, 2021 - Ongoing Project
series of photos

A project documenting different forms of partnership. These portraits aim to illustrate how intimacy and interpersonal dynamics change as well as illustrate social, cultural differences amongst those paired together. Examples include romantic partners, friends, family members and colleagues.

















My time as Ghassan, 2024
series of 6 digital photos

During my residency at Ma’s House in Southampton, I took on a project to method act as Ghassan Kanafani. This included dressing and acting as him, writing on the frustrations of love and colonialism and creating drawings as he did. The intention behind these photos is not to recreate his portraits, but instead highlight similarities and differences between his and our time as someone in the lineage of Palestinian artists.
